How long does it take for Personal check to bounce

Hi everyone, I have heard different things about how long it takes for a check to clear. Some say it takes weeks, but I need a clearer answer. Is it 2 weeks? 6 weeks? What is the longest it could take to clear before it might bounce?

I want to know this before I withdraw the money from my account. I am okay with letting it sit there to avoid any bounced checks.

Typically, a check that is going to be returned due to insufficient funds will do so within at least two business days.

I think within two days it will be cleared

I had an issue with clearing my check some time back, but it took less than a week for it to be sorted out

I agree with this, it should not take more than two days
