- Make sure you check
with every state in which you have lived (unclaimed property is generally turned over to the state
of your last known address as reflected on the records of the business holding your money, stock, etc.).
- Do not assume that the business has your last known address. If they do not, the property is supposed
to be sent to the state of incorporation of the business. Many times the state of incorporation is Delaware,
New Jersey, New York or California, even though the business might be located in Kansas.
- If you are a woman and you have been married, or if you are simply checking out family names, make
sure to check under maiden names.
- Keep in mind that if someone calls or writes to you and asks that you pay them money for the
successful return of your unclaimed property, you probably have some out there somewhere. The folks
who are contacting you are called 'heir finders.' They are not likely to contact you unless they believe
that they have found property belonging to you. Heir finders generally charge a fee to locate and help
return unclaimed property to you. Call us first.
