What Is the PA Money Match Program?
In May, the Treasury launched a Money Match program, which automatically returns unclaimed property worth up to $500 to rightful owners—no action needed, just verification through state records.
Even if you received a notice from the program, the Treasury urges you to search the database—you may be entitled to even more than the automated amount.
