So, yes, you can deposit a post-dated check before the date shown, but it isnt advised. Be prepared for the possibility that the check funds wont be available. Not only do you not want to incur an insufficient funds fee, you dont want to go through the trouble of obtaining a reissued check.

Can you deposit a check thats future dated?

Postdated checks can usually be cashed or deposited at any time unless the person who wrote the check specifically told their bank not to honor the check until a certain date. Rather than writing a postdated check, it may be better to use online payment services or coordinate with your biller to move back the due date.
