Find Unclaimed Property in Washington – Part 2 of 2

(Part 2 of 2)

The problem may lie in more than one factor – the fast paced lifestyle we live these days, the idea people have that mountains of paperwork are necessary when dealing with any government agency, and and simply not believing that these assets are out there. The more people change addresses, jump from spouse to spouse (changing last names), jump from job to job, the more likely it is they are going to lose track of their financial assets like tax refunds from the IRS or inheritances from a relative that had passed away. Even those that are aware of the possibility that they might have unclaimed money in Washington and other states often do not bother doing a search at all assuming it isn't worth the headache.

The Unclaimed Property Division collects more than $55 million in abandoned or lost assets annually in Washington State and that amount adds up with each passing year. Educate yourself on all the various ways to search, how often to search, and what sites to search and get started tracking down money you could have coming today! Who knows? For a change, the government might owe you money this time instead of the other way around.
