State Unclaimed Property in Tennessee

The Tennessee Department of Treasury holds unclaimed property — dormant bank accounts, uncashed checks, insurance proceeds, and similar assets — until the owner or their heirs claim it. The free official search and claim portal is ClaimItTN.gov. Heirs of a deceased owner file a claim with proof of death and proof of authority to act for the estate.
