delayed funds availability

Read a random definition: controlled substance

A quick definition of delayed funds availability:

Delayed Funds Availability: When you deposit a check in the bank, sometimes the bank may not give you the money right away. They may hold onto it for a few days or even longer before you can use it. This is called delayed funds availability or DFA. It means that the bank is waiting for the check to clear and make sure that the money is really there before they give it to you.

A more thorough explanation:

Delayed funds availability is a term used by banks to describe a situation where they hold onto funds that have been deposited through a check until the check clears. This means that the money is not immediately available for withdrawal or use.

For example, if you deposit a check for $500 into your bank account, the bank may put a hold on those funds until the check clears. This hold could last for a few days or even up to a week, depending on the bank's policies and the amount of the check.

Another example is if you receive a payment through a check from a client or customer, and you deposit it into your business account. The bank may put a hold on those funds until the check clears, which could impact your ability to pay bills or make purchases for your business.

Delayed funds availability is a common practice among banks to protect themselves from fraud or insufficient funds. It is important to be aware of your bank's policies regarding delayed funds availability so that you can plan accordingly and avoid any unexpected financial difficulties.
