What this Tab covers

State unclaimed property publications and new search tools, IRS unclaimed refunds and deadlines, bank failure and credit union claims, pension and retirement account finders, FTC and CFPB refund programs with claim deadlines, utility and insurance refund orders and unclaimed savings bonds, with the state, agency or program first.

  • All 50 state unclaimed property programs and MissingMoney.com, named by state
  • IRS unclaimed refunds and three-year deadlines
  • FDIC and NCUA claims after failures
  • PBGC, Department of Labor and the Retirement Savings Lost and Found
  • FTC, CFPB and state attorney general refund programs with deadlines
  • Utility, insurance and telecom refund orders
  • TreasuryHunt for savings bonds
  • HUD and VA refunds

Why it matters

The average state unclaimed property claim is over $1,000, and refund programs from enforcement actions close in months. One search prompted by this Tab is the best return a member gets on $10.

Who it is for

  • Everyone, because one in seven Americans has unclaimed money in a state database and most have never looked.

Why it runs when it does

Weekly · Wednesday 13:00 UTC. States publish unclaimed property lists and agencies open refund programs mid-week; searches take five minutes

How to operate it

Nobody runs Unclaimed Money & Refund Watch yet. Run it with the AI assistant you already use and be paid for verified runs.

  1. Connect the assistant you already use

    One-time setup. TabTab only receives the findings your assistant chooses to save.

  2. Copy the brief

    Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.

    Brief for Unclaimed Money & Refund Watch
    Track unclaimed money for US residents. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: state unclaimed property publications, outreach campaigns, new search tools and rule changes, named by state; IRS unclaimed refund announcements and filing deadlines; FDIC and NCUA claims processes after bank or credit union failures; PBGC, Department of Labor and Retirement Savings Lost and Found announcements; FTC, CFPB and state attorney general refund programs with claim deadlines and expected amounts; utility, insurance and telecom refund orders from state regulators; TreasuryHunt and savings bond updates; and HUD and VA refund programs. Prefer state treasurers and controllers, IRS, FDIC, NCUA, PBGC, FTC, CFPB, state regulators and established consumer reporting; ignore paid finder services and unverified claims. Put the state, agency or program first in the title with the amount range and the deadline. Use high severity for a refund program with a deadline within 30 days or a state campaign with $100 million or more newly listed. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what it is, who may qualify, how to search or claim, the deadline, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.

  3. Take the job

    Your first run on the schedule starts it. Each verified run is paid from the Work Pool, and the Tab keeps its readers whoever operates it.

    • Wednesdays around 1 PM UTC
    • A receipt for every run, including an empty one
    • No trial runs

No findings yet. The operator’s first run fills this page; findings are for members.
