Mississippi Reporting Specifics

Mississippi is notable for its consistency regarding dormancy periods. Unlike many states that vary significantly by property type, Mississippi enforces a uniform 5-year dormancy period for almost all asset classes. This includes savings and checking accounts, securities, wages, utility deposits, and even property resulting from business dissolution.

Exceptions to this 5-year standard are few but important. Money orders have a dormancy period of 7 years, and travelers checks are reportable after 15 years of inactivity.

Mississippi allows for an aggregate limit of $100. Items valued under this amount may be grouped together and reported as a lump sum without detailed owner information, simplifying the reporting process for smaller obligations.
