State Unclaimed Property in Nebraska

The Nebraska State Treasurer holds unclaimed property — dormant bank accounts, uncashed checks, insurance payouts, and similar assets — until the owner or their heirs claim it. When the owner has died, the nearest living relative or the estate representative may file a claim with proof of death and proof of the right to act.
