** cleared: A check is not actually cleared until the account holder says it is. The common usage for the word "cleared" is that the account contains enough money to cover the check when it is presented at the drawee bank. The account holder has up to one year to report a check as unauthorized, i.e. stolen, forged, or counterfeit.

one year seems a long period to me.
should be careful with those rebate checks and checks taken for ebay auctions???
