Slide into September by checking IndianaUnclaimed.gov for unclaimed cash

09/07/2025

As summer starts giving way to autumn in Indiana, Attorney General Todd Rokita invites Hoosiers to visit IndianaUnclaimed.gov to discover unclaimed property possibly waiting to “fall” into their hands.

“There’s no reason for money rightfully belonging to you to sit in a government account,” Attorney General Rokita said. “We want nothing more than to get these funds back into your wallets or bank accounts where they belong.”

Unclaimed property includes assets such as unclaimed wages or commissions, money orders, safe deposit box contents, forgotten savings and checking accounts, refunds and overpayments on such things as credit card balances and cell phone bills.

During Attorney General Rokita’s tenure, the office’s Unclaimed Property Division has set records for the amount of unclaimed property returned to Hoosiers — including $81 million in 2023, the largest amount ever returned in a single year.

“Unclaimed Property Director Amy Hendrix and her staff have done incredible work,” Attorney General Rokita said. “When I talk about serving with servants’ hearts, I can point to their devoted efforts as an example of exactly what our office stands for.”

Already in 2025, the Unclaimed Property Division has returned more than $68 million — with a full third of the year yet to go.
