Take a look if you have any unclaimed blance in a bank account somewhere.Sometime you can be very surprized.One of my co-workwer "discovered" $5000 waiting for him in a sleeping bank account from a departed relative.Here link for the Bank of Canada http://ucbswww.bank-banque-can...h.htm http://ucbswww.bank-banque-can...1.txtFrom the same web siteAs at the end of December 2002, approximately 767,590 unclaimed balances, worth some $204 million, were on the Bank's books. Over 88% of these were under $500 representing 24% of the total value outstanding. The oldest balance dates back to 1900. And the link for the quick searchhttp://ucbswww.bank-banque-can...h.asp

There is something just like this in the US as well, it's been featured on the Oprah Winfrey show. I've searched for my name and nothing comes up. Oh well.

Is there a way to check online or do I have to sent a request to the Bank of Canada?

Nothing for me either... I tried every last name I'm related to & might have a claim to.
