Start at mycash.utah.gov, Utah’s official Unclaimed Property Division site. The search is free. Enter a last name or business name, then use a first name, city, or ZIP code to narrow the list when needed.

Unclaimed property can come from dormant bank accounts, uncashed checks, safe-deposit-box contents, stock records, or unpaid insurance benefits. The state holds property reported in a name, but a search result is only a possible match. A familiar name, former city, or expected company does not by itself establish ownership.

Exact name matches appear before similar names. Treat either kind of result as a possible match; the search result alone does not establish ownership.

When a result appears to match, select it and choose Continue to File Claim. Follow the state’s claim instructions inside the official state flow.

For a previously submitted Utah Unclaimed Property claim, return to the official MyCash homepage, choose Check Claim Status, and enter that claim’s Claim ID.

If a message or search result raises a legitimacy or privacy concern, type mycash.utah.gov into the browser directly or reach the Unclaimed Property Division through the State Treasurer’s official page. The state search page provides the division’s phone number for those questions. Keep sensitive documents inside the official claim flow rather than sending them to an address supplied by an unrelated message.

Before opening the search, gather the last name or business name and any first name, city, or ZIP code that may narrow the results. For a possible match, use Continue to File Claim. For an earlier submission, open Check Claim Status with the Claim ID instead.
