Amount returned in 2025 has already eclipsed previous record from calendar year 2023 — credit goes to great staff and strong messaging  

Attorney General Todd Rokita announced today that his office has shattered the all-time record for the amount of unclaimed property returned to Hoosiers in a single year. As of this month, the Unclaimed Property Division has delivered more than $82.5 million to rightful owners during 2025 — eclipsing the prior record of $81 million set in 2023.  

“From day one, our team has been laser-focused on getting every possible dollar back to its rightful owner, and breaking our own record just two years later shows what’s possible when we set our minds on a goal,” Attorney General Rokita said. “I’m proud of this milestone, but we’re not done — there’s still plenty of money out there waiting for Hoosiers.”  

Attorney General Rokita commended Unclaimed Property Division Director Amy Hendrix for her leadership and her entire team for this record-breaking achievement.  

“This record is a team victory,” said Hendrix. “We’ve worked extremely hard and reached further than ever to find owners before they even know to look. Every claim processed means real money back in Hoosier hands — and with weeks left in 2025, we’re pushing to return even more.”  

New property is added to IndianaUnclaimed.gov regularly. With nearly a billion dollars waiting to be claimed, Attorney General Rokita encourages everyone to spread the word to friends, family, coworkers, or others.
