Questions? We've got answers
What is Unclaimed Property?
If you move, forget about an old bank account, someone owed you money, or moved without notifying a company, you may have unclaimed property waiting for you. When a business can't reach the rightful owner for an extended period of time, the property is given to the state for safekeeping until it's claimed.
How does property become unclaimed or abandoned and how can I prevent that from happening to me?
It happens more often than you might think. You might move to a new address, change your last name, switch banks, or simply forget about an old account. Over time, if there's no activity or contact, the holder may be required to report it as unclaimed property. Keeping your contact information up to date and reviewing your accounts regularly can help prevent this.
How long do the claims take?
The timeline depends on your state and the details of your claim. Some claims are processed relatively quickly, while others may take longer if additional documentation is needed to verify ownership. Once you've submitted everything that's required, you can usually check your claim's status through your state's process.
Does the State ever take ownership of unclaimed property?
In most cases, no. The state holds the property in custody until the rightful owner or an eligible heir comes forward and successfully claims it. If you believe your property belongs to you, you can follow your state's claims process to recover it.
