If using a software program, we become aware of a check drawn on our customers account is for sale on Telegram (a marketplace for help depositing a stolen checks) and it is over $25k would a SAR be required? We froze the item and to our knowledge the check was not purchased or negotiated.

How do banks handle loan solicitation checks at their branches? Do all banks accept these types of checks, or are we even required to? If they are accepted, when do they give the customer availability or could this type of check be sent for collections?
I thought collections was only for foreign checks.

We need an advice for below situation.
1. Our customer cashed a check for $9,230 from another bank at one of our branches on 11/21/23.
2. On 11/27/23 we received a return for this item as Stop Payment.
3. On 11/28/23 we processed a late claim returned to Fed and received the credit from Fed same day.
4. On 1/19/24 we received a late returned debit from the Fed to deal directly with the other bank. We contacted the other bank as they insisted that it wasn't a late return.
How can we resolve this situation and how we can ask other bank to pay us?

We have a business customer who had an employee negotiate their payroll checks a second time. This employee deposited their payroll checks through a mobile channel with their bank over a year ago and then deposited them again.
They cleared our customers account because our duplicate detection only goes back a year. Our customer did not reconcile or review his accounts to notice the duplicate payments and wants to hold the bank responsible. They total about $11k. We already tried returning the checks for duplicate and as expected, they were returned for "Late Return".
I am looking for any input as to how we can recoup the funds? The bank of first deposit (PNC) did take in stale dated checks as well as having their customer not adhere to mobile banking terms. Any input would be appreciated.

Is a check payable "FOR" someone the same as a Representatives Payee? I've seen checks that do not have "Representative Payee for..." just "For..."
John Doe
FOR Sally Doe
Is this sufficient, or what should it read?

I am working with a new core system and we are discussing our exceptions process for items presented that cannot post for various reasons i.e. NSF, closed account, account restriction, etc. This system will not backdate the item to the date of presentment in cases where we choose to pay it. Is there anything that states the item must be "paid" on the date of presentment?
Every other core I have ever used in my 28+ years has always backdated the item to the presentment date.
