Moline, IL... Illinois Treasurer Dan Rutherford will be at the Moline Public Library on Tuesday, September 25, 2012 along with State Representative Rich Morthland (R-Cordova) in a joint effort to connect Illinois residents with their cash and assets through the Treasurer's new I-Cash program.
"When people move or loved ones pass away, businesses and banks are required to turn over unclaimed accounts to the treasurer's office," explained Morthland. "It's common for people to lose track of those assets. This is a great opportunity to get the help you need to reclaim what's yours."
Some examples of unclaimed property currently held by the treasurer's office include :
- Money from inactive savings and checking accounts
- Unpaid wages or commissions
- Stocks, bonds, and mutual funds
- Money orders and bill overpayments
- Paid-up life insurance policies
- Safe deposit box contents
I-Cash staff will be onsite from 10 am to 12 pm to help residents locate unclaimed property. Rutherford will be available to the media from 11:15-11:45.
To find out if you have unclaimed property through I-Cash, you can visit the treasurer's website at www.treasurer.il.gov and follow the I-Cash link. You can contact the Unclaimed Property Division by calling (217) 785-6998 or emailing info@icash.illinois.gov. You can also contact Representative Rich Morthland's District Office at 309-762-3008 or by email at repmorthland@gmail.com with any questions or concerns.
