Long Distance Check Clearing

How long does it typically take for a banker's check - (cashiers/credit card/finance check) to clear from Canada to the U.S.? Do these checks take longer to clear, since they are classified as international checks?


Unfortunately, some of these checks take longer than two months to come back to the bank where they were deposited when dishonored. Canadian banks don't need to follow U.S. laws, and U.S. banks don't need to follow Canadian law, when it comes to the clearing of checks.
