Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L3.2 Using the Check Register Discussion Does the amount of a check immediately get withdrawn from your bank account as soon as you write it? No. It does not get withdrawn until the person you wrote it to deposits the check and the bank processes it. This could be three or more months after you wrote it.

Copyright 2014 © W. Seth Hunter ConsumerMath.org L3.2 Using the Check Register True Story Two individuals had a joint bank account. Anytime they wanted to spend money, they would look online to see how much money was in their account. One day they got a letter from the bank saying that they had overdrawn their account and were being charged $50 in overdraft fees. Their mistake was forgetting the loan check they had written last month and which had just been charged to their account, but they had already spent that money for other things when their online balance showed they had money in their account.
