Senate Republicans are partnering with the Illinois State Treasurer’s Office to bring ICASH events to communities across the state, helping residents identify and reclaim unclaimed property held by the Treasurer’s Office. Since 2015, the Treasurer’s Office has successfully returned over $2 billion in assets to Illinoisans.

According to the Treasurer’s website, unclaimed property includes abandoned intangible assets such as checking and savings accounts, certificates of deposit, overpayments, insurance checks, payroll checks, utility refunds, money orders, un-cashed checks, dividends, stocks, bonds, and the contents of safe deposit boxes, among other things.

Senate Republicans are committed to continuing these ICASH events throughout Illinois, providing local access to ICASH services and assisting residents in claiming their rightful property. The process is free of charge, requiring only proper identification to return the property.
