Detailed Answer
nccash.com serves as the North Carolina Department of State Treasurer’s unclaimed property portal. If you hold unclaimed assets through this system, follow these steps to access and review your account information:
- Create or Retrieve Your Account Credentials: Navigate to nccash.com and select “Login.” Enter your last name, full Social Security number (SSN), and ZIP code. If you aren’t registered, choose “Create Account,” verify your identity, and wait for a Personal Identification Number (PIN) to arrive by mail.
- First-Time Login: Once you receive the PIN (typically within 7–10 business days), return to nccash.com, click “Login,” and use your SSN and PIN to set a permanent password.
- Navigate Your Dashboard: After logging in, access the “My Unclaimed Property” section. This dashboard displays all property records, including dates, amounts, and holder names.
- Review Property Details: Click each property record to view detailed descriptions and any scanned documents. Download PDFs for your records or print directly from the dashboard.
- Update Account Information: If your mailing address, phone number, or email has changed, update your profile under “Account Settings.” Accurate contact data ensures you receive future PINs and claim status updates.
If you encounter issues with your login or PIN, contact the NC Department of State Treasurer’s Unclaimed Property Division at (919) 814-2000 or review support resources on their official website.
