Illinois State Treasurer Dan Rutherford will hold 16 Cash Dash events today through Thursday to determine if the state is holding money or unclaimed property entitled to residents.
The treasurer’s unclaimed property division has $1.5 billion in cash, plus contents from bank safety deposit boxes that have been abandoned for at least five years, according to a news release.
The Cash Dash program helps reunite owners with unclaimed property. On average, the program returns about $80 million dollars annually to owners. Businesses and banks are required to turn over unclaimed accounts to the treasurer’s office.
To find out if you have unclaimed property through Cash Dash, visit the treasurer’s website, www.treasurer.il.gov, and follow the Cash Dash link.
The website is updated weekly. Contact the unclaimed property division by calling (217) 785-6998 or emailing info@cashdash.net.
