STEPS TO COMPLETE YOUR REPORT
1. Your accountant or controller should search your records for any unclaimed funds your
organization may be holding. See the Property Type Codes & Abandonment Periods
schedule on P.4 for types of reportable funds.
2. If a diligent search has shown that your organization is not holding any unclaimed funds,
file a negative report using the Transmittal (AOS/UP1) form on P.6. Mark the “negative”
box in the “Type of Report” section. Please note that a “negative” report will be necessary
only for organizations that have had property to report to us in the last three years.
3. Issue due diligence letters to the property’s owners between 60 and 120 days before filing
your report. Due diligence letters must be issued for all items $50.00 and over, when the
address on record may be accurate. See pages 16 and 17 for sample due diligence letters.
4. Choose a method of reporting after reviewing the following information on reporting
methods. Indicate your “method of reporting” selection on AOS/UP1. The Division of
Unclaimed Property (“Division”) requires holders to utilize NAUPA electronic reporting
when the number of records exceeds 100.
ONLINE
You can use our website, www.auditorjimwood.org, to either submit your report
electronically or complete a paper report to mail in to us. With this method of reporting,
you do not need to fill out any of the forms in this booklet.
DISKETTE OR CD-ROM
NAUPA electronic reporting is required for holders reporting more than 100 records, but
can be used for reports of any size. For NAUPA text file formatting guidelines, please go to
our website at www.auditorjimwood.org/pdf/naupa-revised-standard.pdf. Your diskette or
CD-ROM must be accompanied by a completed AOS/UP1 form.
PAPER FORMS
To report by paper, complete the applicable forms contained in this packet. All forms may
be duplicated. Basic information about your organization and summary information about
your unclaimed property report should be provided on AOS/UP1 on P.6. Owner detail for
your report should be provided on AOS/UP2, AOS/UP3, AOS/UP4, and/or AOS/UP5. A
computer printout is acceptable for owner detail if all required information is included.
5. Complete your report. For your convenience, statute allows items under $50.00 to be
lumped together into a single “aggregate” amount. The Division, however, prefers to have
only items under $25.00 lumped together as an “aggregate” amount. Stock, safe deposit
box contents, and all other non-cash items must be listed individually.
6. You can deliver your report, remittance, and safe deposit box contents using the delivery
instructions on P.2. See P.12 for securities delivery instructions.
7. If you have any questions, please e-mail us at ho[email protected] or call us at
501-682-9174.

INSTRUCTIONS-LIST OF OWNERS OF
UNCLAIMED FUNDS (AOS/UP2)
This form is used to report individual cash and cash-related items of unclaimed funds,
stock dividends, and bond funds. If applicable, also or instead complete and return
AOS/UP3, AOS/UP4, and AOS/UP5. Mineral proceeds should be reported separately on
AOS/UP3. If the form provided is not large enough for all cash listings, make a copy of the
blank form before using it or attach a computer printout which includes all of the required
information.
1. Enter the full name of each owner of property valued at $50.00 ($25.00 preferred) or
more. For an owner who is an individual, list the last name, insert a comma, insert a space,
list the full first name, insert a space, and list the middle initial. Please follow the name with
any identifiers such as Jr. or Sr. if applicable. Example:
Smith, James R Jr
Punctuation should consist only of a comma between the last and first names. List
corporation, partnership, association, and trade names exactly as adopted. Where there are
two or more owners of an item, list each owner on a separate line. List the primary owner
first along with the total unclaimed funds for all owners. List the remaining owners along

Smith, James R Jr $725.00
Smith, Betty S $0.00
2. List the last known address of the owner, beneficiary, payee, or trustee as shown in your
records, even if mail has been returned from that address. If the address is unknown, mark
it as “unknown”. Do not abbreviate city names. Use standard post office abbreviations for
state names.
3. Enter the “Relationship Code” which best describes the owner’s relationship to the funds
and, when there are two or more owners of an item, their relationship to one another. See
P.3 for a list of relationship codes.
4. Please list the owner’s social security number or tax ID number if you have it. Other than
the owner’s name, this is the most important information you can furnish to us. The
Division holds all social security numbers in strictest confidence.
5. Enter the property type code that corresponds to the type of funds you are reporting. See
P.4 for a list of property type codes.
6. Enter the account number or other identifying number for the unclaimed funds you are

held or owned by the owner. For your convenience, statute allows items under $50.00 to be
