Stopping Adsense Cheque & Re-Issue
If you are adsense publisher and you have lost the check or havent received a check in time by standard or secured delivery, you can always place a stop request to check and google will credit back your earnings. But you will get that money only in the next payment cycle.
You can also stop the check and request re-issue if you have lost your check by chance.
Note: Before placing the stop request make sure that your check is not cleared! You can login to your adsense account and click on the details of payment and the check cleared date will appear by 10th of every month.
For Standard Delivery
As per adsense requirements, you can always place a stop request after 30 days of time (1month)
But It is a good idea to wait for atleast 40 days of time for standard mail delivery because of postal delays in certain countries (especially in india) there is a good chance of getting check delivered well after 1 month by ordinary mail. For example, if you see payment issue date of Jan 25 and you can request reissue by first week of march.
For Secured Delivery
As per adsense requirements, you can ask for re-issue if you havent received checks by 5th of every month. It would be a good idea to request re-issue after 10th of every month. Be sure to track your secured check before requesting a reissue.
Generally a tracking no will ONLY appear in your adsense account under payment details by first week of every month or after 5 days of payment issued date and be sure to track the shipment from DHL website. Key in tracking no and see the status of shipment.
Important: If you have already placed a stop request and suddenly you have got the check and deposited in the bank the check would be dishonored and by that time google would have stopped the check. So dont deposit in the bank if you have already placed the stop request.
How do i request re-issue?
1. Login to your adsense account.
2. Note down the payment no, payment date, amount in local currency by clicking on My account > payments > details.
3. Follow this link: Adsense Request check reissue
4. Key in your full name and adsense login email . Do not use any other email address.
After one day or so you will get an automated email from google that the process has been started.
How much time it takes to stop the check and credit back earnings?
It usually takes about 15 days for google to stop the check and credit back your earnings. check out Adsense Help Center for more information.
How do i know the check is stopped and earnings credit back?
You will usually see “Check stopped – Earnings credited back” in your account, if google has successfully stopped the check.
When do i receive the payment for stopped check?
You will ONLY get this payment added to your previous month earningsNEXT payment cycle. You will see the total outstanding balance in your adsense account.
Do adsense checks expire?
If you have forgotten about the check and if you havent cashed the check, the check would automatically expire after 6 months. If thats the case your earnings will be credited back and your adsense account will be placed on temporary hold asking you to change the address and select new form of payment. Just go through the steps and save the changes.
If you want specific help from adsense team, i would suggest that you participate in Adsense discussion forum and post a question there.
