Oregon will soon distribute another $3.5 million to Oregonians who may not realize they should expect it. As part of an initiative to return unclaimed funds to people, Oregon State Treasury announced early this year that they were planning an ambitious initiative that would distribute $10 million worth of unclaimed funds back to people.

This is the second phase of the state department of Treasury’s effort to return unclaimed funds reported in 2019. Funds returned will reach approximately 9,000 individuals within the state.
