Q: I used to live at Eliot Community Human Services which is an agency that used to be my rent payee but when I moved out
of that agency i moved to Amesbury to a different agency which is now called Vin Fen and i need help with tracking down a $ 6000.00 check that i was supposed to get and I was told that the person's name Kerri from Eliot mail it to Vin fen but she was supposed to mail it back to S.
S.I and they haven't received it from them I don't know what to do about this problem
A: A New Hampshire attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. Whatever happened to the check along the way is anyone's guess. One option is to look into whether the bank could help you figure out where things went wrong. From what you describe, the Eliot facility cut a check for $6,000. Maybe if they could provide you with the routing number, check number, and name of the bank, the bank could help you track it down. If it remains open or unaccounted for indefinitely, maybe the facility could ask the bank to cancel the check and re-issue a replacement. That could involve a small cost, depending on the financial institution. But it might be worth it if this mix- up is holding up your housing payments. Good luck
