Not all certified checks have an expiry date on them.

I imagine it varies depending on the financial institution. Seems crazy though to issue certified checks without an expiration. I don't recall the last time I saw one printed without one, but I don't see many in any given year.

It would be very rare because of the exposure. Another option is that the expiration date was 10 years from now or something similar; not really something an elderly person wants to gamble with.
