Unclaimed Refunds

Do you have an Unclaimed Refund?

Unclaimed Employee and Employer Refunds

The Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Unemployment Insurance (UI) Tax Section maintains a list of unclaimed employer and employee refunds. You may have been entitled to a refund check if an accounting adjustment was made to your Alaska Employer UI Tax account that generated a credit balance. If you are an employee, you may have been eligible for a refund if you worked for more than one employer who contributed to the Alaska UI Trust fund during a calendar year.

As of October 2009, the UI Tax Section has approximately 4,088 unclaimed employer and employee refund checks. Unclaimed refund checks range in value from $1.30 to $45,112.09. If you think you might be entitled to one of these checks that were deemed undeliverable by the post office, click on the “Do you have an Unclaimed Refund?” link above and enter either your Alaska Employer ID if you are an employer or your Social Security Number (SSN) for employees as a search criteria.
