Harrisburg, PA\u00a0<\/strong>\u2014 Treasurer Stacy Garrity today told Pennsylvanians: \u201cYou can be anything, including one of the many Pennsylvanians owed some of the $4.5 billion in unclaimed property we want to return!\u201d<\/p>\n More than $37.5 million is waiting to be claimed by Pennsylvanians named Barbie, Ken, Midge, Margot, Robbie, Ryan, Gosling, Greta or Gerwig \u2013 or with the word \u201cpink\u201d in their name or business name.<\/p>\n \u201cEveryone should head to\u00a0our website<\/a>\u00a0and search for unclaimed property today,\u201d Garrity said. \u201cWe don\u2019t have any hot pink Corvettes or dream houses in Treasury\u2019s vault, but you could find some cash \u2013 or even long-lost family jewelry to pump up your fashion game! Also, don\u2019t forget to search for any other names you go by, like Barbie, who should also search for her full name, Barbara Millicent Roberts.\u201d<\/p>\n The average claim is worth about $1,600. About 1 in 10 Pennsylvanians have unclaimed property waiting to be returned.<\/p>\n Unclaimed property can include things like dormant bank accounts, uncashed checks, forgotten stocks, insurance policies, tangible property like contents of abandoned safe deposit boxes and more. State law requires businesses to report unclaimed property Treasury after three years of dormancy.<\/p>\n While Barbie is setting records at the box office, the Pennsylvania Treasury Department is setting records with unclaimed property. In fiscal year 2023-24, Treasury\u00a0returned a record amount of unclaimed property<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 nearly $274 million.<\/p>\n To search for unclaimed property, or for free assistance with a claim, visit\u00a0patreasury.gov\/unclaimed- STACY GARRITY, STATE TREASURER<\/p>\n www.patreasury.gov<\/a><\/p>\n Information provided to TVL by: <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Harrisburg, PA\u00a0\u2014 Treasurer Stacy Garrity today told Pennsylvanians: \u201cYou can be anything, including one of the many Pennsylvanians owed some of the $4.5 billion in unclaimed property we want … Continue reading Treasurer Stacy Garrity Urges Real-World Barbies (and Friends!) to Search for Unclaimed Property<\/span>
