Hoosiers urged to search $700 million in unclaimed property

After ringing in the new year, Attorney General Todd Rokita is inviting Hoosiers to visit IndianaUnclaimed.gov to see if they have some extra money waiting for them in 2023.

“Our hardworking Hoosiers deserve to have their money returned,” Rokita said. “My office is committed to serving the people of Indiana and protecting their individual liberty. Getting unclaimed property back in the hands of its rightful owner is crucial.”

In 2022, Rokita’s office returned more than $62 million in unclaimed property to its rightful owners. This is in addition to the $48 million returned in unclaimed property in 2021.

Unclaimed property is any financial asset with no activity by its owner for an extended period of time. This can include once unclaimed property in its custody. The Unclaimed Property Division at the Attorney General’s office conducts outreach efforts to locate the rightful owners or heirs.

Individuals and/or businesses have 25 years to claim money once it is reported to the Unclaimed Property Division.

Over $700 million remains to be claimed, and it can be returned to its rightful owners in 2023.
