Always Check To See If You Have Unclaimed Property

[Zwielicht]

I was watching YouTube on my TV when I came across this video.

This one is for California specifically, so I checked the government site and was surprised to see I could make a claim for a savings account I had from 2019 that was closed due to inactivity. I made the claim already, but regardless of where you live, check to see if your state or province has a similar website. Here are a few examples below:

• https://www.tax.newmexico.gov/individuals/what-is-unclaimed-property/search-unclaimed-property/
• https://www.vamoneysearch.gov/
• https://unclaimedproperty.la.gov/

These are for different states in the US, but I checked quickly and found similar or equivalent government sites for other countries. Here are a couple of examples:

• https://www.gov.uk/unclaimed-estates-bona-vacantia
• https://www.unclaimedproperties.bankofcanada.ca/

You never know how much you may have in unclaimed property, so it's worth a check.

Must be nice living in a country that has those rules, no such rules here.

Here people claim those property which they not belongs too. Make fake papers and claim it's there property and sell that property too in other person name.. so much corruption and many corrupted people here.
