Check 21 is the legislation's goals "to improve the overall efficiency of the nation's payments system." Today, most checks must be physically transported - whether across town or across the country - before they can be cleared. Check 21 provides a new option: legal acceptance of paper reproductions of original checks. This reproduction is called a "substitute check" and is produced from a digital image of the original check.
A substitute check is a legally sanctioned document, with all the rights and obligations as the original check written from your checkbook. Substitute checks are paper copies created from electronic images of original paper checks (front and back, with all endorsements). Each substitute check also includes a statement identifying it as a legal copy of the original check.
If you currently receive your canceled checks in your monthly statement, or if you view images of them online, you may begin seeing substitute checks.
Because of the provisions of the Check 21 legislation, original paper items will not be available in many cases. To give customers the most flexibility, First National gives customers the following options:
Check Truncation - No physical or images of canceled checks are returned in statement.
Check Images - Images of canceled checks are printed as part of the statement. This option may not be available for all products.
Items Returned - Paper items (original and substitute checks) will be returned in your statement. This option may not be available for all products and an associated fee may apply.
