Do you have money coming your way?

According to the Treasury Department, unclaimed property is any financial asset that has been left with a “holder,” such as a bank, insurance company or other business or organization, without activity or contact for one year or more. This can be things like checking and savings accounts, uncashed dividends, overpayments, stocks or refunds.
