Questions About Check Payment

[Pasindu]

Hello, I have a few questions about receiving payments by check:

For the Payee Information address, should I enter my mailing address or my permanent address (as on my NIC)? I want the check to be sent to my mailing address, where I currently live.

Once I request a payment by check, how long does it typically take to receive it?

Can I cash the check at a local bank in Sri Lanka?

I appreciate any insights from those who have experience with this.

Thank you!

Thank you for your message. Regarding your Payee information, either your mailing address or permanent address is fine. So all referrals and royalties must pass a 30-day period before being cleared for payment and should be issued within 45 days of the closing date of the earnings cycle. You should receive the check within 30 days of it being sent to you and do confirm with your Bank in Sri Lanka directly about cashing the check in when it arrives. Also just to help you, for International creators to be paid you will need to submit a completed W8 form, the help center article is here: https://help.zazzle.com/hc/en-us/articles/222706728-W-8-Forms

Hope this helps you.
