Treasurer Tom Briese announced today the 2024 Unclaimed Property Annual Report will be published in 16 Nebraska newspapers in the coming weeks, beginning March 9 in the Scottsbluff Star-Herald and March 10th in the Omaha World Herald.
“This is a great way for Nebraskans to check to see if they, their business or their friends or family may have property they are entitled to. Nearly 1 in 5 Nebraskans have some sort of Unclaimed Property held by my office, and we want to get it back to the rightful owner,” Briese said.
“In addition to those who get the hard copy of the Unclaimed Property report, I also want to encourage everyone to check out our online database at www.NebraskaLostCash.gov, which is constantly updated.”
The 2024 Tabloid represents $17 million in new unclaimed property for the owners listed within the publication. The report will be published as a 48-page tabloid insert in 16 Nebraska newspapers, as required by State Statute, according to the following schedule:
