Here’s what you can expect. We try to finish processing the current business day's transactions, and updating balances, by 8 a.m. CT on the next business day. For example, if you're following up on a check that may have cleared on Tuesday, the information should be available after 8 a.m. CT on Wednesday.

The check cashing process starts when a check is presented to your checking account. U.S. Bank doesn't have control over how quickly the check is presented from the financial institution that cashes it.
