Plug your name in on this site and you may find a few extra bucks you didn't know you had! https://www.nctreasurer.com/Claim-Your-Cash/Claim-Your-NC_Cash/Pages/default.aspx
So I tried this last year, they require so much paperwork to even find out the amount (and claim it) its not worth it. All they tell you is yes or no (and its not 100% its yours even in some cases).
Really? I went on there, found my name, filed a claim in less than 5 minutes. If they need more information then they'll contact you. Of course, it states my amount will be less than $50 so maybe not a big deal.
Surprised then as the claim form (and I just looked at it again) wanted proof of address and about 2 other "proofs". Its a former apt so I dont think I have anything stating I lived there anymore.
