Did you know that you might have property or money waiting for you to be claimed? I had heard about it but didn’t really understand what it was. Well, I recently came across the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators. They provide a list of state department sites where you can find your state and check for unclaimed property. They also provide a link to MissingMoney.com which is a database of state unclaimed property records. ( I suggest you check both!).
“There’s no way any of that money is mine” you may be saying. You’d be surprised! Here is a list of accounts that may be unclaimed (from the NYS Office of the State Comptroller):
- Savings Accounts
- Checking Accounts
- Uncashed Checks
- Telephone/Utility Deposits
- Rental Security Deposits
- Wages
- Insurance Benefits/Policies
- Safe Deposit Box Contents
- Mortgage Insurance Refunds
- Stocks and Dividends
- Mutual Funds
- Certificates of Deposit
- Trust Funds
- Estate Proceed
- Economic Stimulus Check Did It Help And What About A Second?
