If you haven't experienced cashing a foreign check yet, read on.
You are supposed to take the check into the bank and get grilled by them as to why you got paid from an outside source. They send all that info to the DOJ and it must go into some kinda database to thwart terrorism.. Or perhaps it is sold as an Op-In email list to LightSpeedCash ;)

It's normal that you have to take the check into the bank, so they can convert it to US dollars and put it into your account. But them asking you why you got paid from an outside source? That's just none of there damn business.
