FAQ

Searches for unclaimed assets can only be done by a legally entitled person, such as someone who holds the appropriate Power of Attorney or the Executor or Administrator of an estate. Separate applications must be made for every individual whose assets may be missing.

Since payable-on-death accounts (PODs) and transfer-on-death accounts (TODs) must designate a beneficiary, they are not subject to the California probate process. The payable-on-death beneficiary can claim the bank account proceeds by going to the bank with a copy of the death certificate and proof of identification.

The simplest way to find out whether someone opened an account in your name is to check your credit reports. They will list all accounts associated with your name and Social Security number.

If there's a will without a named executor, the court will issue a Letter of Testamentary; if there's no will, the court will issue a Letter of Administration. Present either of these letters to the bank along with the death certificate to close the account.

To find lost bank accounts of a deceased, check their personal records for any bank statements or deposit slips that could indicate where they held accounts. You can also contact the banks directly where you believe they may have had accounts.

How to access online assets Request certified copies of the death certificate. Contact the state's office or the county clerk where the person died for records. Check for access rules. Contact the company or service. Gather other files and identification. Obtain a letter of testamentary.

How to Find the Bank Accounts of a Deceased Person Search Their Home and Mail. Visit Banks in Their Area. Call Their Employer. Search Online Databases. Consult With an Experienced Probate Attorney.

You can search online for your state's unclaimed property department, or you can start with FDIC's unclaimed property information. If you find your missing property, you can file a claim with the state, but don't be surprised if they ask you to prove your identity in order to claim it.
