Find Your Indiana Unclaimed Money

No one can agree on what a "Hoosier" is, yet Indiana remains the Hoosier State.  Figure that one out.  I propose that we change the name to "The Unclaimed Money State", as Indiana is sitting on over $300 MILLION, just waiting to be claimed by folks just like YOU.  Okay, Indiana can't take that name, because there are BILLIONS in unclaimed property across the nation, in all 50 states, so I guess we're stuck with "Hoosier".

Uh, better not spend too much time thinking about that- Indiana unclaimed money becomes state property if the owners don't show-up after 25 years. Yes, if your lost money sits around too long, you lose it to the government along with so much of your tax dollars.

Locating Your Missing Money The Right Way

The Office of the Indiana Attorney General provides the following definition of Indiana unclaimed money:

Any financial asset with no activity by its owner for an extended period of time is considered unclaimed property. This includes unclaimed wages or commissions; savings and checking accounts; stock dividends; insurance proceeds; underlying shares; customer deposits or overpayments; certificates of deposit; credit balances; refunds; money orders; and safe deposit box contents.



They go on to list a number of reasons why funds become unclaimed:

  • A change of residence or business relocation occurs, and an updated address is not provided, or an account or deposit is simply left behind.
  • A check is received and accidentally discarded, lost or forgotten.
  • A rightful owner dies and relatives are unaware of a bank account, safe deposit box or stock owned by the deceased.
  • Notification of a divorce or marriage is not provided.
  • A clerical error at a company alters a former employee's name or address, resulting in returned mail.
