Unclaimed FDIC Insured Deposits |
Note: There are time limits on claims of FDIC-insured bank accounts, CDs and safe deposit boxes ... |
Depositors must claim an insured or transferred deposit
within 18 months after the FDIC initiates the payment of insured deposits,
or the successor institution must return the funds to the FDIC. Thereafter all
rights of the depositor against the transferee institution are barred. The FDIC then offers to remit the insured deposit to the custody of the unclaimed property administrator in the account owner's home state. If a state declines to accept, the right to claim ends with termination of the receivership. If a state accepts, the FDIC is deemed to have made payment to the depositor, and all rights of the depositor against the FDIC are barred. Most - but not all - states allow claims in perpetuity, and there's a reversion clause. If a depositor does not claim the funds within 10 years of delivery, the deposit must then be returned to the FDIC, and all rights of the depositor against the state and the government are barred. Be aware that due to the number of mergers and acquisitions in the banking industry over the years, it is possible you or a deceased family member might well have an account at a failed bank and not know it. Further, unclaimed safe deposit boxes at closed branches may be drilled and the contents sold at auction just weeks after closing, so prompt action is advised.
