Nacha's definition

In addition to an RCK Entry, the item to which the RCK Entry relates has also been presented for payment.

Verbatim from Nacha — ISO 20022 Guide to Mapping U.S. ACH Return Items and Notifications of Change, August 2023, Version 2.01 (Table 1, return reason codes) (return reason code table). Applies to: RCK.

How it appears in an ISO 20022 statement

Nacha's mapping guide marks this code as not currently supported or mapped for camt.053 (footnote 1): it applies to Standard Entry Class codes or flows the guide does not cover, so it has no published ISO 20022 reason-code mapping.

Return time frame

Nacha's public rule pages refer to the standard "two-day" return time frame for returns that are not extended (unauthorized) returns. The governing time limit for this code is set in the Nacha Operating Rules, which Nacha sells and which were not used here, so it is not restated.

Can the entry be reinitiated?

Nacha's reinitiation rule governs resubmission of returned debit entries; it does not arise for this code. See the definition and the operator note for what the return means and who acts on it.

What an operator does next

Both the RCK entry and the underlying item were presented. Refund the duplicate and fix the re-presentment control.

PaymentBrief guidance, not Nacha text. Your ODFI's procedures and the current Nacha Operating Rules govern.

Where this comes up on PaymentBrief

Confidence: high. Status: verified. The Nacha Operating Rules govern. Nacha sells them and they were not used here; every statement above is taken from a public Nacha document or a public US Treasury or Federal Reserve document, named per statement. Where those documents are silent, this card says so of those documents — it is not a claim about everything Nacha has published.
