Go to the official state portal
Visit the Georgia Department of Revenue website. This is the only official source for unclaimed property in Georgia.
Search by your full legal name
Enter your first and last name exactly as it appears on government IDs. Try variations (maiden name, middle initial, common misspellings) if the first search returns no results.
Verify the match is yours
Look for a match with your address history. Unclaimed property records usually include the last known address, which helps confirm the funds belong to you.
Gather required documents
Most claims need a government-issued photo ID and proof of the associated address. Business claims require additional documentation like articles of incorporation.
Submit your claim online or by mail
Georgia allows electronic filing for most claims under a certain dollar threshold. Higher-value claims or claims by heirs may require notarized paper forms.
Track your claim status
After submission, you'll receive a claim reference number. Processing times vary by state and claim complexity — typically 30 to 180 days.
