Lost or Stolen Check

If a check is lost or stolen, the payee to whom the check was drawn should contact the General Accounting Office immediately at cashmanagement@ncat.edu. The payee must first execute an affidavit (in the presence of a Notary Public) before any further action can be taken to replace the check. Once the appropriate party has secured the affidavit, the check will be deleted in the banking system via the State Treasurer’s Office. 

If the check is found before the delete process has been completed, the General Accounting Office must be contacted to cancel the process. After a delete action has been completed, a replacement check or direct deposit may be issued. The processing time for a delete action is usually about two weeks. There are usually N.C. A&T employees on campus who serve as Notary Public, and often one may be available in the Dowdy Building. However, because this is a volunteer service, there is no assurance that a notary will be available through the University.
