Frequently asked questions

Search alabama.findyourunclaimedproperty.com, then file a claim with proof of death and proof of authority — certified Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration if the estate was probated, or an Affidavit of Heirship if it was not.

Under Code of Ala. 1975 § 35-12-83, the State Treasurer allows or denies a filed claim within 120 days and gives the claimant written notice of the decision.

Alabama holds unclaimed property until it is claimed, so there is generally no deadline for heirs to file a claim.
