See if you have any unclaimed cash in the Kansas treasury

Sharing is caring!

There’s Kansas State Treasurer’s Office currently returns between $14 Million and  $16 Million in other unclaimed property each year. Yes, that’s just in Kansas and some of it may be yours. Here’s how to find unclaimed funds in the State of Kansas. This process is totally FREE – make sure you are going to the correct link to find the information. The link is below.

Unclaimed Cash in Kansas

What is Unclaimed Money? 

  • Unclaimed funds are those assets where the rightful owner cannot be located.
  • Typically unclaimed funds and property are handed over to the state the assets are located in, after a dormancy period has passed.
  • When claiming unclaimed funds that have risen in value, taxes may be assessed at the time as ordinary income.
  • States have established processes whereby legal owners of assets can reclaim unclaimed funds.

Let’s face it, life is expensive, and wouldn’t it be a fun surprise to find out that there is unclaimed money or property just waiting for you to claim?

Millions of Americans are missing out on billions in forgotten cash. Currently, states, federal agencies, and other organizations collectively hold more than $58 billion in unclaimed cash and benefits. That’s roughly $186 for every U.S. resident. – Google

They have made the process of finding unclaimed cash or unclaimed property very user-friendly.

Here is the direct link to Kansas Unclaimed Property

If you want to start from the beginning, go to the Kansas State Treasurer’s website and click on the “Search Now” link.

After you have entered your name and read the disclaimer, a list of names will appear. (Or it will show that nothing was found. Bummer!) If any of the claims match your address and description, you can add up to 30 properties into a virtual shopping cart.

At checkout, you will be asked to fill out a little more information such as your driver’s license number and email address. Depending on the type of claim, you may be able to fill out a paperless form or choose to have the state of Kansas mail paper forms to your address to fill out and return.

If you want more personal service or have questions that the website cannot answer, there is also the option to call the Kansas State Treasury Department at 785-296-4165.

In addition, if you have checked this website before, it never hurts to check it again. I personally have never had my name on the list until this year. What a fun surprise!
