Complete Guide to Searching and Claiming in OR [2026]
Oregon holds millions of dollars in unclaimed property waiting to be returned to rightful owners. With SSN matching enabling fast auto-approval for many claims, Oregon's program has returned significant funds to West Coast residents. The Oregon State Treasury is responsible for safeguarding and returning these assets to their owners.
Oregon uses the KAPS (Kelmar) for its unclaimed property database. Property typically becomes dormant after 3 years of no owner activity, at which point holders must report it to the state by November 1 each year.
This is the official state website operated by the Oregon State Treasury. Use this site to:
Visit oregon.findyourunclaimedproperty.com and search using your name or business name.
Check the property details (address, holder name) to confirm it belongs to you.
Complete the online claim form or download the paper form if preferred. Online claims typically process faster.
Provide proof of identity and ownership as requested by the state.
Oregon claims typically take Goal: 120 days (Current: 6-7 months) to process.
Once approved, receive your funds via check or direct deposit (if available).
