Unclaimed Property in Philadelphia

CC Financial Services Inc. holds the largest amount at $46,600, typically representing uncashed loan refunds or insurance settlements, while Citibank N.A.'s $2,800 consists mainly of dormant checking and savings accounts.

The Kong Chow Benevolent Association of Southern California's $2,800 in holdings reflects the area's historic Chinese-American community connections and traditional mutual aid societies.

Currently, $545,800 in unclaimed property is being held for Philadelphia residents across 1,248 records. The average claim value is $494.82, with some individual claims worth thousands of dollars.

Citibank N.A. is holding $2,800, usually from dormant bank accounts or uncashed checks. Kong Chow Benevolent Association of Southern California holds $2,800, generally from membership benefits, mutual aid distributions, or community organization refunds.

What types of unclaimed property are most common in Philadelphia?

Miscellaneous outstanding checks account for 186 records, representing uncashed payments from employers, refunds, or settlements. Stock shares returned by the post office make up 117 records, typically from companies unable to reach shareholders after address changes.

How long does it take to claim unclaimed property in California?

Most California unclaimed property claims are processed within 60-90 days after submitting required documentation. Claims under $1,000 with clear ownership documentation often process faster, sometimes within 30-45 days. While our search results are instant, the state's verification and payment process requires time to ensure proper ownership validation.

Is there a deadline to claim unclaimed property in Philadelphia?

California holds unclaimed property indefinitely with no deadline to file claims. However, searching now is advantageous because dormant accounts may continue accruing interest, companies frequently merge or change names making future claims more complex, and inflation reduces the purchasing power of your money over time. Additionally, required documentation becomes harder to obtain as years pass.
