Escheatment

I had a few thousand dollars in a quickbooks account, and they gave it to the state without me knowing.  How do I get it back?

Recovering funds that have been processed through Escheatment varies depending on a specific state regulation, kybillin. 

 

To ensure we provide the most accurate guidance, we need some additional information from you. Specifically, can you share more details about the funds that were surrendered to the state? Can you also tell us who initiated the escheatment?

When escheated funds are turned over to the state, you generally need to go to your state's website and file a claim to get the funds back.  At this point, there's nothing QB can do.
