The History of Unclaimed Property:

The origin of the unclaimed property law dates back as far as the colonization of America. Since that time, states have revised and refined their various unclaimed property laws, resulting in over $35 billion in collections; currently held for the benefit of owners whose whereabouts are at least temporarily unknown.

Making A Claim For Unclaimed Property

Payment of a claim cannot be made based on name similarity alone. Proof of ownership is necessary. Please note examples of documentation necessary to support your claim: INDIVIDUALS AS CLAIMANTS Copy of your current driver’s license and verification of your social security number (ie: copy of your social security card, copy of pay stub, tax return, etc.) If there is a co-owner, the co-owner must provide a copy of their driver’s license and verification of their social security number (ie: copy of your social security card, copy of pay stub, tax return, etc.) Verification of reported address (ie: previous address found on old utility bill, post cards, letters or deed, stock certificate, magazine subscriptions, etc.) Proof of doing business with the reporting company (ie: copies of statements, correspondence, receipts, policies, or contracts)

How Does The State Get Unclaimed Property?

www.ClaimItTexasOrg.com

Texas Unclaimed Property Law requires corporations, businesses, associations, financial institutions, and insurance companies (referred to as “Holders”) to annually report and deliver property to the State Controller’s Office after there has been no activity on the account or contact with the owner for a period of time specified in the law—generally three (3) years. Often, contact is lost when the owner forgets that the account exists, or moves and does not leave a forwarding address, or the forwarding order expires. In some cases, the owner dies and the heirs have no knowledge of the property.
