There is currently more than $2 Billion worth of Texas unclaimed money being held by the Lone Star State!
There are about 25 million people in Texas and about 6 million names on the list of unclaimed money in Texas.
That means approximately one in four Texans have unclaimed money being held for them!
For a little background information, unclaimed property is defined as “any financial asset that has been abandoned by the owner for one or more years”.
Now, you may ask “why would someone abandon their own money?”. Well for the most part they don’t do it on purpose!
For instance, some examples of Texas unclaimed money include:
- Dividend, payroll or cashier’s checks
- Stocks, mutual fund accounts, bonds
- Utility deposits and other refunds
- Bank accounts and safe deposit box contents
- Insurance proceeds
- Mineral interest or royalty payments
- Court deposits, trust funds, escrow accounts
Now, take a look the third item “utility deposits and other refunds”. Let’s say you moved into a house or an apartment and needed to get the electricity in your own name. The electric/utility company may have asked for a deposit before starting up your service. Now let’s say you lived there for several years and decided to move out. By this time, you have probably long forgotten about your utility deposit. If you move out and the utility company does not have a forwarding address or for some unknown reason on their end are not able to get you your deposit back, they are required by law to turn it over to the state.
In Texas, unclaimed money is turned over after one year. This is just one example of how your money might end up on the Texas unclaimed money list.
Claim Processing Time
It takes approximately 90 to 120 days (see comment below) to process an original owner claim once it is received at the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, if no additional information is needed. Certain claims may take longer.
Technically, there is no deadline for claiming Texas unclaimed property. In fact, if the owner has passed away, heirs can legally claim their family’s assets. But abandoned items pile up extremely quickly, and the state has a very limited amount of space in which to store these items. After every possible method to contact the owner has been exhausted over several years, something has to be done.
Texas does need help in contacting the six million people owed unclaimed money. The state cannot do it all themselves.

The City of Houston, TX has their own list of unclaimed money.
The list has 410,000 names on it. This list only contains amounts under $100. Anything over $100 is turned over to the States unclaimed money division.
Still, if you live or have lived or worked in Houston, it doesn’t hurt to check to see if you have some money owed to you.
Here is the Houston, TX unclaimed money list (Not more than $100).

Hi there,
I recently went to the unclaimed property site and found that my brother, who is incarcerated for life, has over $30,000 worth of unclaimed money. This money was unclaimed a two years after he went to prison. Is there a clause for the state of Texas that prohibits a family member (with the valid documentation) from claiming funds for an individual who is in prison?
Best regards,
Kay

Hello, Found my company claim today and applied to claim it, i have already gotten a gotten to fill and the requested documents are ready and sent out today too, How long does it take to hear back from them?
Have you heard back from them yet? Just curious.

My past husband life insurance company (John Hancock) informed that they sent his insurance proceed to the state unclaimed department. However, the Texas unclaimed department can’t assist me to locate the fund because I don’t have the property ID. Where can I get that ID number ? I have the insurance company, his policy number, death certificate, but it seems no one can assist to locate the fund. What should I do to start the search ? Thanks for helping.
Trisha,
Did you go here and enter his name to see if anything came up:
https://claimittexas.org/
The state has zero intention of returning any funds. All they do is hassle wanting the same information that is sent repeatedly. My
Mom has been dead for 20’ years and they want receipts where she paid insurance premiums. It’s nothing but a big joke.
hello trisha,
you can find the property id in the county assessors office where the property is located. good luck honey.

My sister died Intestate in 2005, family went to Probate Court took 5 years to close. She had no children or husband, mother passed in 2008. There was some problems with siblings. Only two items were still outstanding, a low rate CD and a Home. I was Administrator and worked to try and settle items but still problems. We finally sold house in 2017 and that process took us through all the necessary processing of documents. Back in 2017 after the bank fused to continue the CD account, it was turned over to Texas Unclaimed Property. I filed claim in May 2018, didn’t get response until May 2019. I’ve been sending requested documents since then, some are the same documents and some are different. I’ve spoken to the examiner directly, by voicemail, and via letters downloaded with requested documents. I just received another letter and Heirship request. On requested document was faxed a month ago. The other is a document that I’ve been took is impassible reopen case to get. So tell me why are they asking me for documents dated no earlier than 18 months ago, ? from a case closed by Harris Count October 2010?
Do you fill out the form with the SSN, Driver’s License, etc. with info for the person who held the account or the person claiming the money? I am the executor and am not sure whether I should be entering the information for the decedent or for myself.
Thanks!
Best thing to do is contact the state directly and ask them.

Hello Cindy Norton
The state has funds from two of my mother’s ins policies. She passed in 2001 and the actual policies have long since disappeared. In order for me to collect, one of the required docs are either the policy or proof of premium payments. I have neither. What can I do?
Contact the insurance company and let them know what you are trying to do. They should be able to assist. I had to get copy of policy and receipt of payment from my grandmothers policy.
I have money that I have to claim. Amounting to an estimation of $10,000
No one I know has Ever collected
Are you saying they have money being held for them and cannot get it or, nobody you know has any money being held for them?
Exactly! They either never answer the phone or make you provide documentation there is no way to produce. It’s a royal pain in the butt.
You are absolutely right! I sent birth certificates, death certificates, completed forms for family history, and then they wanted more information about the addresses, phone numbers, and vital statistics on all these whom many after many years have lost contact with and don’t even know of my brothers death. They make it so complicated that I believe it is a hoax the keep the money. After I had been sick for several months and unable to get more paperwork together, they closed the case and never contacted me and when I tried to call the one working on the case, he, so far has not responded. Makes you wonder if the representative gets a commission for keeping it. Then where it goes seems to be kept a secret, as I cannot find out where the money is now.
trying to find if I have unclaimed money
Seems the state has it planned that way to me. What a scam!
I have filled out for a claim, but where is the last step???
Submit your claim and required documentation to comptroller. You can check status of your claim when you have a claim number.
How does one get the claim number? By snail mail? Email?
Submit and wait. You’ll get confirmation & claim #. Use the claim number to check status of claim on website.
I have 2 cd’s that were purchased in 1983 and noone seems to know how i can get hem cashed and iI called that claims number but they didn’t know how to do it can you give me some kind of help
Follow the instructions. Click on “claim” and it’ll take you to a screen where you’ll fill up your personal info. Write down the claim# because it will ask you for that number again as you fill out those forms. If its more than $500 they usually ask to have your signature notorized. They email you the forms to print out, take to your bank to notorize and mail it in with a copy if your ID and whatever else they ask for.
I have “claimed” my funds. I am wondering which address the funds will go to? Will they go to the one on file, or the one I just input into the system that states my current address?
To your new address
So which States will release the checks directly to the Business??? Majority are saying they will only release to the claimant. How would you possibly go about collecting your percentage if thats the case? Ask the claimant to promise to pay and hope they honor it???
Kimberly,
Off the top of my head Arizona and California are two states that will send a check directly to the Finder.
If you have a signed agreement with the claimant, they are legally obligated to pay you. It’s just like any other business.
If nobody did work because they were worried about whether they were going to get paid or not, nothing would ever get done!
So they send out the finders fee check and a check for the balance goes out to the claimant ? that’s convenient if so… do you have to be licensed in the state of Arizona?
You need to be a licensed private investigator in the state of Arizona.
I WATED TOO WRITE THE STATE COMPTROLLERS OFFICE a.s.a.p. but cant find address!

I submitted my claim in November 2018 for insurance money on behalf of my mother who is in a nursing home. I have Guardianship for her and the status on the Website says I’ll be contacted if further information is needed.
Since we’ve past the 120 day processing period should I be concerned and need to contact the State directly, or is this about normal from a processing time frame? Will I just get the check in the mail or will I be notified that it has been sent. Thanks for your response.
It could be taking that long. The best thing to do is contact the State directly and ask. You can call them at 800-321-2274. It’s probably best to call them as soon as they open so your not on hold forever. I would think you would just receive a check in the mail but you can inquire about that as well.
My name is Jeffery g krone li live in ky my family and lived in Houston on looking for in claimed money my # is 5029655332
There are many Krone’s listed in Texas and a couple of Jeffrey’s (although I didn’t see any with a “g” in the middle).
You should go to https://claimittexas.org/, enter a search and see if you recognize anyone.
No limit on time to get your check? Does it really happen?
Hollo
,what is that about. How is work to get money???
What if the funds are in an ex husband’s name from when you were married and it was from utility deposits or anything that should be shared money or indeed your money but his name?
I waited an entire three years and never got any response at all….you must reapply/re-request aid in getting those funds. So basically, DO EVERYTHING ALLLLLL OVER AGAIN…. That’s what they told me after I called them, waited on hold for exactly 99 minutes and not to mention 3 years later too…. and make sure you sent in all of the mandatory documentation that they request and when you RE APPLY go back on the website to make sure theres no “newly listed” documents they’re now requesting as well, THEY TOLD ME….. YES IT BITES BUT IT WILL BE WORTH IT WHEN THE CHECK FINALLY COMES. RE APPLY EVERY 145 DAYS UNTIL YOU ARE PAID AND YOU CAN CALL AND CHECK ✔STATUS OF YOUR CLAIM TOO THE INFO IS LISTED ON THE SAME http://WWW.CLAIMITTEXAS.ORG WEBSITE. GOD?? BLESS YOU AND GOOD LUCK, I HOPE YOU GET LOTS OF ???????MONEY $$$!!!
I have been waiting 5 months. No one has contacted me…
I filed a claim in July2019,waited till August 2019 and called they stated paperwork was never received????? Then re submitted in August. It’s now December 29, have not received any thing. All I get is if any additional info is needed you will be contacted.
Hi,
I am from Bangalore, India. I have around 33 shares form Dell Inc bought on 2005/2006. However, since the company is no more a public ltd, the shares are not listed. Kindly let me know how do I claim for the amount which is in escheat account
Did you search in Texas yet as there are several Mayur’s listed? You can look at https://claimittexas.org/ . If you don’t see anything the best thing to do would be to call the Texas Unclaimed Property Division at 800-321-2274 and speak to someone directly.
So I got a card in the mail saying I am owed money from some Texas agencies. I’m skeptical, but curious. Looking around on my own hasn’t come up with anything. Jennifer Kay Melancon Smith Landry.
Did you work, or ever do business with any of the agencies? If so, the money could be yours. My mother had money from a old utilities company and she received the money and gave me 10% for finding it. Lol
I sent in two claims over a year ago and still have heard nothing.
You should contact the State directly at 800-321-2274
I sent all my Father’s probate paperwork in 7 months ago and the Claimit page has said Documents received, we will contact you with any questions. I sent the Comptroller’s office am email in December and they replied that they have the paperwork and they profess claims in the order they come in. I was hoping to close the estate out in 2018, but that’s not going to happen now.
Hello Jennifer,
I searched on Jennifer Smith, lots of them out there. Cross reference to the cities you may have lived in. I saw a Jennifer C Melancon
JENNIFER C MELANCON 15360 WAGON WHEEL CIR CHANDLER TX 75758 STATE OF TX DEPT OF TRANSPORTATION REFUND OR REBATE DUE $26.00
Several Jennifer Landry’s also. Cross-reference these too. Hope this helps.
Where da best place of unclaimed money.
Anna,
I would say try the free search page on this site first.
claimittexas.org
Best way I learned to do it is put ONLY FIRST & LAST NAME.. IT BROADENS THE SEARCH MORE SO THAN WHEN U ADD THE CITY & ZIP
My Married names were Mary Trevino, Mary Lorenzi, Mary Vasquez
I’m trying to find my lost funds and I was told that I had some….
Gayle,
Go here and enter your name:

Good luck!
Same thing happened to me, christus spohn hospital. Irony was I worked there over 30 years and never changed address.
Good Evening, I am trying to find out if I have any unclaimed funds in my name and every site I try is requesting a fee. I was told that it should be free. Is this correct and if so how can I get this information? Any and All help would be Greatly Appreciated
Elizabeth,
Yes, there is no charge to search here. Besides the map on the home page, you can use the resources on the free search page to look for funds.
I saw that I have money on the website and filed the necessary paperwork and submitted my ID as requested. So it takes 3-4 months for them to cut a check and send it in the mail?
Iam want see if i have some money lost thank you
I would like to know if I have anything my married name is Coleman maiden name is Hunt
My ex husband recently passed away. There are 3 small claims due to him which he was never able to get straightened out to receive himself – oil money left to him by his father many years ago. He has 2 sons who should receive these little distributions. How do we arrange this for them? I have his death certificate. Thank you.
I also see claims in there for both of his brothers who have children that should be receiving this…

I’m trying to find my unclaimed fund help please
Teresa, If you leave (or leaved) in Arlington, seems like you have $50 bucks to claim.
Live or lived (sorry, wrong verb used above) 🙂
I claimed an item on the website. I got a letter saying the following
“The reporting institution has not been able to provide our office with sufficient documentation on the property owner to verify the proof of the ownership you have submitted
I called the state and they said – Yes, The hospital where you worked cannot provide information to verify your claim.
So, if they say they have no way to verify my money, they don’t have to pay it to me?
Sorry but that is not right. I have provided my information and I worked for them but because THEY don’t keep good records? That is wrong.

Could i please get some help in recovering my unclaimed money. Will pay fee just to recieve funds. Styvonne6@gmail.com
I have recently received mail claiming I have $2006.84 due to me. I contacted the companies and they claim that I am being overcharged $748.00. Each year. The companies that have contacted me are requiring 50% finders fee. One company is Refund Hound, and the other is ALPA, both are in Houston.
I do not see my name on your list is there another way to find this unclaimed money without paying this extreme fee?
Try going to MissingMoney.com
William,
There’s about 94 items found that list a “William Coleman” with unclaimed funds. I would need to check what addresses have you lived in and in what cities, as well as your Middle Name if any. It is illegal to charge more than 10% finders fees in Texas. I am a Notary and can help you recover your funds, feel free to email me: alstxmobilenotary@gmail.com
Contact HG&S Financing (512) 786-1161. Their fee is 10 percent
I keep getting mail stating that I have unclaimed funds. My searches has not proven that. Am I not looking in the right place?
Who is sending the mail? Unclaimed funds can be held in a variety of places.
watch out for the mail scam offers reverse check the tele # & address SCAMMERS
I found out that Texas pulled funds from my etrade account and I am wanting to know who to contact to place it back.
They’re not going to put it back. You’re going to have to file a claim for the funds and then re-deposit them yourself once you receive them.
Is it possible to take my claim and I.D. down to the State offices and wait for them to cut my check? I work right next to their offices.
Kristy, I don’t think it works that fast!

Received my $80 in unclaimed money very quickly in 2015. I’m wondering if I would be getting any type of Tax statement? I’m waiting to file my income taxes until I’m sure where to list this money or if I need to include any type of tax statement.
Pat,
You may want to confirm with an accountant, but you shouldn’t have to declare this on your tax statement because it is money that was yours that has probably already been taxed previously.
Hi, the bowlero at midland texas don’t pay me the last hours! What I to do???
Looking for unclaimed funds.
It says that they charge a fee to receive your money. Why would they charge me a fee if it’s my money???
JeNetta,
Make sure you are dealing with the state of Texas directly. They will not charge you a fee to get your money.
When u win a big prize why do they charge registration fees, and other fees before they give you your prize. it keeps getting larger each ?
Jo Ann,
Because it is most likely a scam, see here https://unclaimed-funds.org/please-do-not-fall-for-this-scam/. You shouldn’t have to pay for a prize if you’ve actually won it.
I just talked to someone they said I had to pay 34.99 to register and receive my money, I hung up.
Melandy,
I’m pretty sure you didn’t speak to someone here: https://www.comptroller.texas.gov/programs/claim-it/ . They would not be charging you to register and get your money from the state.

Hello, Today is Nov. 03, 2015, as I mentioned before, Unclaimed Property mailed a check 10/6/2015 and stated to give it 7-10 business days to arrive. I still have no check, I did phone and was told I have to wait at least 30 days before anything could be done. Was this information correct?

Ok lets try this again since you won’t post mt Question After waiting 2 months for a reply & then I get approve on august 18th but for whatever reason after jumping through all your “Hoops” I have to wait for 2 weeks before MY MONEY to be sent to me. Than it wasn’t sent on the 1st like i was promise for MY MONEY it was sent on the 3rd. So why do I have to wait 7 to 10 business days when you could have overnighted MY MONEY to me?
David,
You’ve got the wrong site. We don’t have your money. Could it be you are trying to reach the Texas unclaimed money office directly?
Can you please explain 2 things for me 1. It says my check was printed August 3rd, Does that mean it was sent out as well on the 3rd & 2nd Question What mail service do you use that takes 10-14 business Days? and if Standard WHY?
Sorry September 3rd

TX unclaimed property asked for more information on a claim I filed for my fiancé Gregory L. Bell now deceased 6/2/2010. Every time they correspond with me, I get a letter to wait 2 to 3 months for them to verify and compare the information, or a message they have contacted the holder and are waiting for a response from the holding company. I thought TX unclaimed property was holding the funds. One time they suspended my claim request and told me they would automatically reopen my file, when the information was received and verified by them and I wouldn’t have to do anything. This will be a whole year going back and forth, plus I believe there are other claims that I haven’t filed for. In 1989 or 1990 Greg and I signed up and was given separate applications for stock. The originals were supposed to come in the mail. I moved back to AL in 1990 or 91, never got dividends or stock papers.
When claiming money through https://mycpa.cpa.state.tx.us/up/search.do it asks for my current city, state, ZIP under “Your Information” however I now live in Canada, and it only offers US States as options. How should I go about this?

How can i get a auto refund from Allstate my father name is on the check who is now decease. My father was the policy
holder and as his daughter my name was also listed on the policy
How do I find the information on my deceased fathers’ probate attorney, the Will he left, and the Executor? My brother, who’s in prison, heard that my fathers’ step-son took my fathers guns & vehicles, and never looked for his actual sons.
What legal actions should I take? Where should I start?
He supposedly had two homes, one in Amarillo, one in Happy, Texas, listed under Lestor and/or Irene Hopper. I cannot find any information on these homes.
Lestor died in 2010, & Irene died during the past year, we believe.
Any assistance you can give would be extremely appreciated.
Hello,
My father passed away a few years ago and we found that he had unclaimed money. It was a little over two thousand dollars. My sister printed off the forms and we both filled them out and signed them and they were sent it. She has been checking back and she said the lady sent the checks out over a month ago and I never received mine. Can you please check to see if there was one check sent out or if there were two and if the check was sent at all. My fathers name is Willie Hubbard and he lived in Arlington, Texas.
Thank you,
Tawanda Hubbard
I would like to know if I have lost money
Trying to find out about money for my son Adam Brown someone told me they left it for him.
Do I have unclaimed money
I worked at General Dynamice-1965-was in a savings payrooll fund never got my funds at time i was laid off
Is that website legit? I don’t want my dad’s ssn getting stolen
Xylina,
The website for the State of Texas, http://www.window.state.tx.us/up/contact.html , is legitimate and you do not have to worry about giving them your father’s information.
Please check your list for unclaimed money
Patricia & Luis,
On the Texas site, https://mycpa.cpa.state.tx.us/up/search.do , there are 69 listings for Luis Cisneros and 26 listings for Patricia.
I suggest you look there.

Willie,
There are plenty of resources on this site to search. You can start here, https://unclaimed-funds.org/free-search/
What do I need to submit to claim my deceased spouse funds ?
JW, you will need to contact the state directly and ask them. If it is Texas here is the information:
Phone (M-F, 8am – 5pm): 1-800-654-FIND (3463) or (512) 463-3120
Most likely they will ask for a death certificate as well as proof that you are the heir.
Do I have any unclaimed money in this account?
hi my name is kaleigh i am heir to funds through my father. the assets are through a couple of states how do me and my father get the assets?
My father Edward L. Nichols had a bank account he showed me before his death that others dont seem to be aware of. I know where he banked but i don’t know if I’m listed as a beneficiary. How do i find out?
Russell,
There should be an estate lawyer or probate lawyer to handle these things. If you say they do not know about this account and you know where he banked, you can start by checking with the bank. If they don’t have any information or cannot help, then you can go to the state and see if anything is being held by them in his name. If so, you can try to claim it and then see what happens.
How long will it take to find my money
Carolyn,
It depends if you have any money and where it is being held. If you do a search in a state that it is readily available it could take you a couple of minutes, maybe faster. If you don’t know where your money is or why money might be being held for you, it could take much longer but there are a lot of variables on such a general question.
Friend said I have I claimed funds
Micah,

Varo,
I “X’ed” out some of your information for privacy reasons. I found your money. I am going to send you an email showing you how to claim it. If you don’t want to do that yourself, I can fill out the claim form for you, but you are going to have to fill out some information for me that I will send to you in an email, then I will apply that to your claim form in Texas.
Abiah,
You’re going to have to check with the state on this. You can contact them at http://www.window.state.tx.us/up/contact.html and also do a search from there as well.

Finally my claim got approved march 5 2014 says you will receive your check within 7-10 days, then on march 10 , 2014 it says your check was printed please allow 7 to 10 days.does that mean that it was mailed march 10th?I am just confused if its 10 days from the 5 th or 10th of march.
Terry,
I’m just seeing this now, but I’m thinking it would be 7-10 days from when it was printed. Hope you got it by now.
We filled out our paperwork and they received our info on dec4 2014 it’s feb 27,2014 and still says the same thing.i don’t think it should take over 80 plus days to get money that is owed to you,especially if you really need it and sent all the correct paperwork.
Amy,
If you look above, you will see I changed the information to say from 60 days to 90-120 days. You have to understand there are millions of people owed unclaimed money, thousands that are filing claims, and probably only a handful of workers processing the claims. At least you know they have it and you will be getting your money back. Hopefully, you’ll have it soon!
How can i apply to get treasury bonds from a deceased spouse?My name was on them before he passed away.
Katherine,
Go to http://www.treasurydirect.gov/NC/FoRMSHome?FormType=SBF&site=indiv and start there. You can contact them and see if they can help.
Akinyele,
I thought I answered this earlier, but it appears I did not post the reply. I checked in Texas and there are two accounts under Peter Akinyele. You need to go to the state site and fill out the claim forms and send them in. It doesn’t matter where you are. As long as you can prove that they are your accounts, they will send the checks to you.
In opened a savings account with Bank of America while on a visit to Houston in 2008. Due to some reasons I did not operate the account even with the smart in Nigeria for security reasons too, I came back to Houston for two weeks visit only to be told that my account is zero and I have to contact this web for help.
My problem is that I will be out of Houston again in two weeks time.
What should I do? I need help.
I filed a claim back in June of this year and I haven’t heard anything about my claim. Could you please check on my claim and let me know what is going on. Thank You Charles W. Hines

Sincerely,

It has been 93 days since they received my information and I have not gotten my funds. I emailed them and was told it could take 3-4 months before they even start a search. Maybe the information listed here should be updated from 90 days to 4-6 months.
Delores,
Thank you for that information. I am going to change it to 90-120 days just so people don’t get their hopes up, maybe with a little note to see your comment below. There has recently been publicity in Texas regarding unclaimed money and that usually brings in a large amount of inquiries and claims. This is one of the reasons why I point out that becoming an unclaimed money finder is such a great business! There are only a limited amount of employees working on unclaimed funds compared to the amount of claims that come in. They are too busy processing claims to be actually looking for people owed money. The unclaimed money departments try to make it publicly known that money is being held by publishing names in the newspaper, advertising, etc., but unless someone owed money makes an inquiry themselves, it would be very rare to get a direct notification that you are owed unclaimed money. That is also why the dollar amount of money being held in general keeps going up every year.
Almost 2 months ago I found unclaimed money under my deceased mother. Florence T N.
