The Official State of Texas Unclaimed Property Website

One in four Texans has unclaimed property from forgotten bank accounts, uncashed checks, security deposits and utility refunds. It’s your money, and we want you to get it back.

Texas is currently holding more than $2.6 billion in cash and other valuables waiting for the rightful owners to claim. It’s never too late to make a claim, and we are committed to ensuring hardworking Texans don’t lose a penny.

COME AND GET IT!

In 2012, the state returned more than $159 million to its owners. Find out what you may have been missing by searching our unclaimed property database.
