A filter for a washing machine is disclosed. The filter includes a check valve fixed to the lower side of a rear panel of a pocket type filter for confining the flow of the washing water introduced into the pocket type filter. The check valve has a fixing portion which is fixed to the lower side of the rear panel by being inserted into a fixing recess formed at the lower side of the rear panel, a moving plate which is extended from the fixing portion to be inclined toward the front panel and opens/closes the space between the front panel and the rear panel, and a connecting portion for connecting the fixing portion to the moving plate and having a thickness thinner than the moving plate in order to reliably move the moving plate. Since the moving plate is upwardly inclined toward the inner side of the front panel, the check valve is capable of supporting the weight of the fluff by which the upper portion of the moving plate contacts and frictionizes the inner side of the front panel even if a lot of fluff is accumulated in the pocket type filter. Therefore, the leakage of the fluff accumulated in the pocket type filter due to its weight can be prevented.
