What is Unclaimed Property?

Unclaimed property is any financial asset that has been left with a "holder," such as a bank, insurance company, or other business or organization, without activity or contact for at least one year. By law, after this time, holders must transfer unclaimed property to the Pennsylvania Treasury Department.

Each year, Treasury receives millions of dollars in unclaimed property ? things like abandoned bank accounts, forgotten stocks, uncashed checks, certificates of deposit, life insurance policies, safe deposit box contents, and recovered stolen property. Treasury maintains custody of this property and works to return it to its rightful owners.
