State Unclaimed Property

What Are These Funds?

When a financial institution, insurance company, business, or other organization is unable to successfully contact the rightful owner for a period of time, state law may require the organization to report and transfer the unclaimed property to the appropriate state agency for safekeeping. The funds generally remain available for the rightful owner or eligible heirs to claim.

Why Do These Funds Exist?

After a period of inactivity defined by law, holders of financial assets are generally required to report and remit them to the state, which holds them for the rightful owner.

Who May Potentially Be Eligible?

  • Original account owners
  • Businesses and organizations
  • Heirs and beneficiaries
  • Authorized representatives

Why Can Recovery Become Complicated?

Older records, name changes, business dissolutions, and estate matters can make it difficult to establish a connection to reported property.
