Wisconsin Unclaimed Property
The Wisconsin Department of Revenue is responsible for managing unclaimed property in the state. Wisconsin works to reunite residents with forgotten or unclaimed funds that businesses and institutions are required to report after a certain period of inactivity.
Types of Unclaimed Property
Unclaimed property can include a variety of assets, such as:
- Uncashed checks
- Bank accounts
- Refunds
- Insurance proceeds
- Security deposits
- Stocks and dividends
How It Works
Property is considered "unclaimed" when it has been left untouched for a period of time, and businesses or institutions are unable to locate the rightful owner. These assets are transferred to the state for safekeeping.
