Depends where you got the money order from, but I wouldn't count on it.

I usually use the USPS money order because it is so cheap but don't see anywhere on their website how to verify if the money order has been cashed.

After further reading I did find this:

<h4 class="pLevel4"> 14.3.9 Payment Inquiry </h4> A purchaser, payee, or endorsee may, at any time, inquire about payment of a domestic money order by completing, signing, and filing Form 6401 and paying the appropriate fee; a separate form and fee are required for each money order. The fee is not required if Form 6401 is filed by a bank, other financial institution, government agency that processes money orders directly with the Federal Reserve Bank, or postal official engaged in official USPS business.

We had send a bank draft which is similar to a money order. I couldn't check it online, but I called the institution it was drawn on and old them the receipt number. They were able to tell me when it was cashed.

I don't understand why a LOT of people use money orders instead of personal checks.

Easy to see when they were cashed plus you can get your reference number to check status!

Surely most people have a checking account?

I've had a checking account since I was 15. But some people just never get one or loose thier account due to overdrafts and whatever, and do everything with money orders and cash.
