Mobile deposits* keeps a history of your mobile deposits* and check images for up to 2 years. To view your deposits in the mobile app,* select the “Deposit History” button within the Deposits tab.

For your protection, retain the original check for at least 5 days AFTER receiving confirmation that it has been accepted. When you’re ready to discard it, mark it “VOID” and dispose of it in a way that prevents it from being presented for payment again. If an issue should arise and the original check is no longer available, please contact the issuer of the check to obtain a new copy that can be resubmitted for deposit.
