You May Have Unclaimed War Bonds!

Every day, I watch a small internet video news report for mortgage professionals from a website called, “Think Big Work Small” (www.TBWS.com). 

In today’s broadcast, Frank Garay  and Brian Stevens (the hosts of the show) shared some information that I thought I would share. 

In World War II, the government issued millions of dollars in War Bonds that were set to mature in 40 years, which means they would all mature by 1985.  However, many people have not claimed their bonds either because they forgot or didn’t live long enough. 

According to www.TreasuryDirect.gov, 25,000 payments for these bonds are returned to the Department of Treasury as “Undeliverable.” 

If you or somebody you know may have an unclaimed bond, follow the link below to the treasury’s website to search.
