You might be surprised to find your name on the list of individuals and businesses with items of unclaimed property being held by the State of Michigan. Types of property being held are varied but include things such as undeliverable refund, dividend or payroll checks, life insurance proceeds, and even forgotten bank balances. Recently, Michigan has pushed financial institutions and other companies to turn over unclaimed property to the State. This push has resulted in more and more people showing up on the lists of unclaimed property.
