Because money is always being added to the fund, it's very important to search regularly, not just once. Money owed to you could be added tomorrow, or next week, or next month, or depending on the type of property in 5 years if that's the proper dormancy period. Each kind of property has its own dormancy period within each state, after which state laws make the holder hand it over to the state who will then hold on to it until the rightful owner comes forward to claim it.

The bottom line is that the state of IL is currently holding a massive amount of cash that belongs to its residents who simply need to learn the right ways to search, how often to search, and where to search.
