Hey everyone.....Sorry for the lame title.
"Need Some Help..." Yeah, don't we all??!!

Anyway, now that we have gotten the nonsense out of the way.....LOL

I am an American, but I live in Northern Ireland. I was a school teacher in Tennessee, and the school board has finally sent me my check for last year's salary.....My question is this.....

I am not allowed to open a bank account yet, because you have to live here for a certain period of time, before they allow you to open one.

The check is for almost $32,000......

How am I going to get this money? Who will cash a check that large?

I am thinking of trying one of those check-cashing places, but they charge a fee......I am sure that it would be a hefty fee on a check that large.....They may not cash checks that large anyway.....

What should I do?

What type of I.D. will I need to show them? How long will it take for them to verify the check, or do they have to do that?

It is in US funds, will that be prob

How are you paying your bills right now? Do you have a bank account still open in the U.S.? If so, deposit the check there.
