Most were from areas that I lived in during undergrad, and bank accounts that I forgot to close after my sister passed away because my brain cells were relegated to freaking out. I still have a bit of a way to go, but what I discovered was a nice start for the purchase! I put my name, and zip codes that I have lived in (between college and moving as a young lady, I’ve had quite a bit) and up popped several links to accounts that I had actually forgotten about. This year, I decided to be a bit selfish, and apply what I’ve had sitting around to purchasing a new camera body for myself. If you live in Illinois, or have ever lived in Illinois, then you should REALLY head over to the Illinois Treasurer’s site to start the process of claiming your money! I signed on last month, and was pleasantly surprised to pick up a bit of extra cash for the holiday. With just a simple click of your mouse, and entry of your name and zip code, you could very well be on your way to claiming money that you have long forgotten about. Have you ever been doing laundry or cleaning out pockets or purses and found a folded up twenty-dollar bill, or better yet, a fifty? If not, you keep track of money way better than I do, and maybe what I’m about to tell you won’t excite you as much as it should.

Please visit the state treasurer's office of Illinois or New York to search for your check if you were unable to respond before the due date. September 2017 Update: Filings for unclaimed property presumed abandoned in 2016 are now complete – University-held unclaimed property were due to the states by May 1, 2017. September 2017 Effective January 1, 2018, the Revised Uniform Unclaimed Property Act (RUUPA) will replace current Illinois unclaimed property law, establishing new dormancy periods and amending certain provisions. For 2018 and onward, Tax and Regulatory Services manages the unclaimed property process. Please note that for 2017 and earlier years, Accounting Services managed the unclaimed property process for the University, including unclaimed accounts payable and payroll checks. Any person attempting to claim such property must do so through the state treasurer's office. Once the dormancy period is fulfilled, the unclaimed property is given over to the state treasurer's office. For example, the Illinois dormancy period for unclaimed wages is one year after one year of being unclaimed, wages are presumed abandoned. While each state defines differently the dormancy periods for unclaimed properties, such periods are generally between one to five years. Typical unclaimed properties with the University are check payments and wages. Unclaimed property refers to property that is presumed abandoned because it remains unclaimed by its owner for a specified period of time ("dormancy period").
