(Part 2 of 2)

Some of the most common types of missing money are dormant savings and checking accounts, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, refunds, wages, payroll, salary, money orders, paid-up life insurance policies, deposits, commissions, uncashed checks, death benefits, dividends, insurance payments, and others. Most of those have dormancy periods of 1-5 years, which means that if it has only been a year or two when a person searches; they wouldn't see a record for an asset that has a dormancy period of three or more years.

On top of needing to search the right web sites often, a lot of people don't understand that they should search listings outside of ND. Believe it or not, a person could theoretically have not ever been outside of the state of ND, but have money owed to them in other states. This occurs when money from insurance companies or employers come from other states. Often times the actual corporate headquarters for for a company exists in a state separate from where a given employee works. Because of this, unclaimed properties being held by institutions in these situations will be handed over to the proper division of the company's home state's treasury department. Of course this means that ND will never have any record of this cash, so a resident who hopes to find and claim it would need to use the same search techniques in other states.

These are only a few of the most common issues that hinder the searches of uneducated ND citizens. But people can overcome these issues, and a number of others, by spending a little bit of time educating themselves on the search practices used by experienced searchers before putting their own feet in the water.
