Unclaimed Funds & Government Holdings
If you've received a call from Vantage PM, this page confirms who we are and how the process works.
Vantage PM audits government agency records to identify unclaimed funds owed to individuals, then handles the paperwork to help you claim what's rightfully yours.
Background
Government agencies and courts routinely end up holding funds that were never claimed by the people they belong to. When that happens, the law generally requires the agency to hold the money for a set period so the rightful owner can come forward and claim it.
In practice, most people never find out the money exists. Notices are limited, mailing addresses go stale, and the paperwork requirements are easy to get wrong. Left unclaimed long enough, funds can be lost for good through a process called escheatment, where the government keeps them permanently.
Vantage PM's audit process cross-references agency records against identity and ownership information to determine who is actually owed money, then verifies and documents the claim before any outreach is made.
Services
A single engagement, start to finish — identifying the funds, confirming you're entitled to them, and filing the claim.
We search government agency records for unclaimed funds tied to your name and confirm the amount on file.
We verify your identity and the details of the claim so it's filed correctly and isn't contested or delayed.
We prepare and submit the claim package to the appropriate agency on your behalf and stay on it until the funds are disbursed.
Process
Five steps, and nothing is owed until the funds are disbursed.
We confirm the funds are on record and gather the documentation needed to support your claim.
We send a plain-language, contingency-based agreement stating our fee before any work begins.
We prepare and submit the required paperwork to the agency or court holding the funds.
We track the claim, respond to any requests, and handle complications until it's resolved.
Once approved, the funds are released to you, minus our agreed-upon contingency fee.
Our Approach
Every case starts with a records audit, not a sales pitch. We work cases nationwide, evaluating each one against the underlying public record before any outreach is made.
Nothing goes out until a claim has been cross-checked against the official unclaimed funds record.
Your identity and the claim details are confirmed before we ever reach out, so contact only happens when a claim is real.
You work directly with the person handling your case — no call center, no leads resold to third parties.
FAQ
Yes. If you've received a call from Vantage PM, it's because our records audit turned up a claim that may belong to you. Unclaimed funds are a matter of public record, and government agencies are required to return them to their rightful owner once a valid claim is made. We don't ask for payment, bank details, or personal identifiers up front — we only need enough information to confirm you're the person the funds are owed to.
No. The audit to check whether funds exist is free. We're only paid a percentage of the funds we successfully recover, agreed to in writing before we file anything on your behalf.
Once you've spoken with us and signed our contingency agreement, we're glad to share the exact amount and where it's being held. We hold those specifics until an agreement is in place so that every case we take on is handled consistently and correctly.
The responsible agency is generally only required to make limited attempts at notification, and notices often don't reach people who have since moved or changed contact information. As a result, funds can sit unclaimed for years without the rightful owner ever finding out.
No. Vantage PM is an independent audit and recovery service. We are not a law firm, do not provide legal advice, and are not affiliated with any government agency. Working with us is always optional — you're never obligated to use our service to pursue a claim.
Typically around 4–5 months from filing to disbursement, sometimes faster depending on the agency or court handling the case. The critical part is filing before the escheatment period ends — after that deadline, unclaimed funds are forfeited for good, which is why timing matters more than speed. We follow up on filed claims until they're resolved and keep you updated along the way.
If you've spoken with Vantage PM, calling back is the fastest way to move forward — there's no obligation, and nothing is owed unless funds are recovered.
