Do you have unclaimed property?

Will states be able to claim rebate checks as unclaimed property? That's for the courts to decide.

Meanwhile, the Minnesota Department of Commerce has its hands full trying to find owners of abandoned checking and savings accounts, uncashed payroll checks, unclaimed safe deposit box contents, and stocks and bonds.

So far this year, the state has collected nearly $50 million in unclaimed property and paid out $16.4 million as owners have been located or have come forward.

To find out if you have money or property coming to you, search www.missingmoney.com for listings nationwide, or access Minnesota's listings through the Department of Commerce's Unclaimed Property Unit at the site www.commerce. state.mn.us. You can also call the Commerce Department at 651-296-2568 or 800-925-5668.
