Other ways to reach us

We can’t claim for you

We’re not a government agency and we can’t lodge or track a claim on your behalf. What we can do is point you to the right official register and explain what to expect.

What we can help with

  • Working out which official register is likely to hold your money when you are not sure whether it sits with your state revenue office, ASIC, the ATO or a bond authority.
  • Explaining what a register usually asks for, such as proof of identity, past addresses, and documents linking you to an old account or a deceased relative.
  • Telling you where to go when a search returns nothing, including the other registers worth checking for the same type of money.
  • Fixing our own pages. If an official link has moved or a step has changed, tell us and we will check it against the agency’s own page and update it.
  • Questions about how we research and review the information on this site.

What we cannot do

  • Search a register on your behalf, or tell you whether a particular amount is being held in your name. Only the agency holding the money can confirm that.
  • Lodge, chase up, or check the progress of a claim. Every claim goes directly to the agency.
  • Give you legal, tax or financial advice. Anything on this site is general information only and does not take your circumstances into account.
  • Accept identity documents, tax file numbers or bank details. Please never send them to us, and be cautious of anyone who asks for them by email.
  • Release money, waive a fee, or speed up an agency’s processing times.

Not sure where to start? The free search guide asks a few questions and points you to the registers worth checking first.
