Press release from Florida CFO Blaise Ingoglia

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.- Today, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Blaise Ingoglia reported over $55 million in unclaimed property returned to Floridians in November, including $585,000 to Gainesville residents.

When a financial asset is unknown, lost, left inactive, unclaimed, or abandoned by its owner,
this is considered unclaimed property that is held by the Florida Department of Financial Services (DFS). Examples of the most common types of unclaimed property are dormant bank accounts, unclaimed insurance proceeds, stocks, dividends, uncashed checks, deposits, credit balances, and refunds.  

Chief Financial Officer Blaise Ingoglia said, “With over $55 million returned to Floridians in the month of November, I think Santa will be very busy this holiday season. I encourage Floridians across the state to check for their unclaimed property at FLTreasureHunt.Gov and see if they might have some extra Christmas cheer waiting for them.” 

Unclaimed property can include tangible assets such as watches, jewelry, coins, currency, stamps, historical items, etc. from abandoned safe deposit boxes. Assets are held by business or government entities for a set time, normally five years. When the holder cannot contact or locate the owner, it is reported to DFS Division of Unclaimed Property.  

CFO Ingoglia currently holds unclaimed property claimable amounts valued at more than $2 billion. To search for you unclaimed property, check out Florida’s Unclaimed Property.
