I got a letter from FL saying I had a couple of hundred dollars. But I had to get my ex husbands signature to get it. First I have no idea where he is at. Second it wasn't worth the hassle and Third I would never see it anyway because like all the other money from our marriage he would end up with it. LOL I hope the state puts it to good use.

I read this yesterday and checked the unclaimed property division of the state I lived in and found they were holding $500 for me that I had sent to my son in a money order 14 years ago that never got cashed. It is a mystery why he didn't cash it, it could have gotten lost in the mail, or who knows what. Anyway thanks for the tip, in just a about an hour I had all the paper work done and in the mail to get that money. Merry Christmas.

Dama,

The State will never contact you directly. I too got a letter like yours. And the Lawyer wanted his fee to process the claim. You can do all that yourself just by going to the state's website.

Where do you check for all the states you've lived in?

Type in your search engine..........unclaimed property "whichever state you want to look in" but don't use the quotation marks. Here is an example...........Unclaimed property Texas

Thanks for the suggestion - I just found $ 60 with my name on it. Woo Hoo - my husband tells me to buy more fabric.
