Answer:
Three years in most states, but some have lowered the time frame to one year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Under UCC regulations (Revised UCC 4-401) drawee banks are responsible for paying forged checks. But clients have the responsibility of reporting forged endorsements in writing to the banks within a three years period. Most states have the three year limit on forged endorsement claims but some states have lowered the time to one year.
