Re: Withdrawing Over Weekend
In the US the Federal Reserve processes all EBT/ACH transactions after the close of business each day, and runs them overnight. Usually the clearinghouse runs them around/after midnight.
The Fed does not operate Saturday night.
Transactions posted on Saturday and Sunday wait until Sunday night to process, so transfers done on those two days show as 'pending' over the weekend, until they clear in the Sunday night batch and show as 'cleared' and 'completed'.
The Fed downloads these batches to your bank of choice, which then may take up to another 24 hours or more to credit your account.
Some of my banks credit at 4AM, some 6PM, some don't batch their info until noon or later.
