Attorney General Invites Hoosiers To Visit IndianaUnclaimed.gov To Look For Unclaimed Property

Attorney General Todd Rokita invites Hoosiers to head on over to IndianaUnclaimed.gov and see what surprises you might find. 

“My office is committed to returning unclaimed property to Hoosiers,” Attorney General Rokita said.” 

While all states administer unclaimed property programs, Indiana is the only one where the attorney general oversees this function. 

Last year, Attorney General Rokita’s Unclaimed Property Division returned $48 million to Hoosiers, and you could be next. 

Some property owners in the Unclaimed Property Division’s database include such holiday-appropriate first or last names of Bunny, Basket, Candy, Easter, Spring, and Bonnet. Whatever your name, you might stumble upon a golden egg. 

Some of the things that might fund are: 

• closed bank accounts
• court deposits
• insurance checks
• utility refunds
• old paychecks
• closed estates

Once the unclaimed property is in its custody, the Unclaimed Property Division conducts an outreach effort to locate the rightful owners or heirs.  

Individuals and/or businesses have 25 years in which to claim money once it is reported to the Unclaimed Property Division.  

Just this year we’ve already returned over $15 million to Hoosiers, with over $700 million just waiting to be claimed — and you could be next. 

So be sure to check IndianaUnclaimed.gov or text CLAIM to 46220 to search your name, family or business and have an egg-stra special Easter.
