LOST CHECKS - 8035

When checks are lost, the agency/department will:

1. Determine the circumstances under which they were lost and work with the bank to locate the checks
2. Notify the payees of the lost checks and request them to place “stop payments” on the lost checks and remit replacement checks if the agency/department is unable to locate the checks.
3.  Notify the Department of Finance, Office of State Audits and Evaluations if the agency/department believes that there is probable fault on the part of the organization transporting the checks or bank.
