俄勒冈州马里恩县塞勒姆市州财政厅10月向约1.3万人寄出700万美元无人认领资金：单张支票50至1万美元、无需申请
俄勒冈州马里恩县塞勒姆市的州财政厅正在通过“无须申领支票”项目，向全州约1.3万人寄出总计约700万美元无人认领资金，单张支票金额从50美元至1万美元不等。该项目由州财政厅主动核对被遗忘资金的归属人并直接寄出支票，收款人无需先行提交申领。州财政部长伊丽莎白·施泰纳于10月23日宣布了这一安排，这批资金由企业与机构于2024年上报州政府，因无法返还给合法所有人而上交。资金来源多样，包括未兑现支票、被遗忘的银行账户、退税、工资支票与账户余额等。财政厅表示，收到10月这批付款的居民应在9月已收到通知信；州无人认领财产网站不一定显示某人是否在自动付款名单上。即使本月未收到支票，居民名下仍可能有其他被托管资金，可在州官方无人认领财产数据库免费查询并在线申领。财政厅估计，全州目前仍托管着约10亿美元无人认领资金，申领没有截止期限、过程免费。
Salem, Marion County, Oregon: State Treasury Mails $7 Million in Unclaimed Money to About 13,000 People in October; Checks from $50 to $10,000, No Claim Needed
The Oregon State Treasury in Salem, Marion County, is mailing about $7 million in unclaimed funds to about 13,000 people across the state this month through its 'Checks Without Claims' program, with individual checks ranging from $50 to $10,000. Under the program, the Treasury identifies the owners of forgotten funds and mails checks directly, without requiring recipients to file a claim first. State Treasurer Elizabeth Steiner announced the arrangement on October 23; the funds were reported to the state in 2024 by businesses and organizations that were unable to return the money to its rightful owners. The money comes from sources including uncashed checks, forgotten bank accounts, tax refunds, payroll checks and account balances. The Treasury said residents receiving the October payments should have received a notification letter in September, and that the state's unclaimed-property website does not necessarily show whether someone is on the automatic payment list. Even residents who do not receive a check this month may have other funds held in their name, which can be searched for free in the state's official unclaimed-property database and claimed online. The Treasury estimates about $1 billion in unclaimed funds remains held statewide; there is no deadline to claim, and the process is free.
