Check Cashing?

I came to this country a 2 years ago illegally and after a year working I had an accident that cause my back to get damaged. During that time I did not work because of the injury, and after I recover I received some compensation, and I got it in a check, but because of my illegal status I had to change my name to a different one, so the check that I received it has my "fake name" and not my real one, and I dont have a bank account, how can I cash it or get the money? Please help!

Answer:
I suppose the problem is that a bank would not know whether it's a stolen check. Do you have any friends who have bank accounts? If so, how about making a deal with them. Sign the check over to them (using the name you had when you got compensation). A month after it clears the bank, they pay you the face amount of the check.

The reason I don't say after it clears the bank is that banks will sometimes credit an account for the face value of the check, but deduct it later if there is a dispute. A month should be sufficient to ensure that no issues will arize.
u should be able to just go to a bank and cash it. U may have to oay a fee because u are not a member of the back
The maker of the check may be willing to cash it. Don't bet on it however because it is money out of their pockets.
Because you have broken the law by being here illegally, then you can not expect the law to work for you in obtaining your settlement. This shows a disadvantage of not staying within the law.
UNLESS YOU HAVE ID SHOWING YOUR FAKE NAME, AND ARE WILLING TO PAY A HIGH FEE AT A CHECK CASHING PLACE OR CAN OPEN AN ACCOUNT IN THAT NAME, YOU MAY BE IN TROUBLE.
I HOPE YOU GET CAUGHT AND DEPORTED.
Theres merchants that would take ur check n take a out a fee. They'll give you the cash n the check will just go into theie acount.
