Attorney General Todd Rokita invites Hoosiers to visit IndianaUnclaimed.gov to see if they have any money waiting for them this spring.

“May the luck be with you this St. Patrick’s Day,” Attorney General Rokita said. “One of our top missions in the office is to reunite hardworking Hoosiers with their unclaimed property. This green holiday is a perfect time for Hoosiers to find a pot of gold.”

After decimating the prior record set in 2014, Attorney General Rokita’s office returned over $81 million in unclaimed property to its rightful owners in 2023. Over $1.5 MILLION is returned to Hoosiers every week, and hundreds of millions are just waiting to be claimed.

Some property owners in the Unclaimed Property Division’s database include such holiday-appropriate first or last names of Ireland, Gold, Clover, Shamrock, and Green.

Here are the types of property that might go unclaimed this St. Patrick’s Day that are even better than finding a four-leaf clover:

  • Unclaimed wages or commissions
  • Money orders
  • Safety deposit box contents
  • Savings and checking accounts
  • Refunds
  • Overpayments such as:
    • Credit card balances
    • Cell phone bills
    • DMV payments

Once unclaimed property is in its custody, the Unclaimed Property Division conducts an aggressive outreach effort to locate the rightful owners or heirs. Individuals and/  businesses have 25 years to claim money once it is reported to the Unclaimed Property Division.
