  2. Not to Accept Checks Written to OSU but Do Not Belong to OSU

    May 18, 2023

    If your office receives any checks written to OSU that should be written to another entity, we are not to accept them and especially not to cash them. Either return them to the originator and ask them to re-write them or ask the group/entity that the check should be written to if they would check with their bank if they would accept them as is with our OSU Extension stamp on the back and allow them to deposit them in that entities bank account.

    Apr 20, 2020

    Do not carry forward outstanding checks any farther than the life of a check- usually around 2 to 3 months… if not cleared, follow-up to see if it needs stop payment and re-written or voided.
