Why trust this guide
We never touch your money
We are an independent guide, not a government agency and not a finder. We do not collect your claim, take a cut, or charge a fee — ever. Independent guide. Not a government agency. Claiming your money is always free.
Every number is sourced
Each dollar figure and legal fact links to the state treasurer or the statute it comes from, with the date we verified it. See our editorial policy.
We route you to free
The loudest thing on every page is the link to the official state site. You can always do this yourself in about ten minutes, free.
