It's nice to have you in the thread, @JP2016. 

Since you've confirmed that the transactions aren't duplicates and haven't cleared, they will appear on the screen until they are marked as reconciled. However, I'd recommend double-checking these transactions to ensure that they haven't cleared your financial institution. While a vendor may not immediately cash a check, one would expect it to be cashed within the stated time frame.

I'm including an article on customizing a report to see uncleared checks to make this process easier: Run a report of uncleared checks.
