The Idaho State Tax Commission is looking for people who are owed unclaimed property, and hoping they’ll call to claim the this lost money.

It’s found money and unclaimed funds for which Idaho businesses have been unable to find the rightful owners, such as payroll checks, contents of safe deposit boxes, tax refunds, stock dividends, worker’s compensation benefits and so on.

The Idaho Legislature in 1997 changed state unclaimed property law. Businesses are required to report these monies to the state tax commission and now after property that’s safeguarded by the tax commission remains unclaimed for 10 years, it will transfer to state ownership and be deposited in Idaho’s general fund.

The state of Indiana is actively seeking to re-unite people with lost money.

Lost money can be anything from an uncashed employment check, money left untouched in a savings or checking account for several years or proceeds from a stock dividend. There are some properties that come from safe-deposit boxes.
