Rhode Island Reporting Specifics

Rhode Island generally enforces a 3-year dormancy period for standard banking accounts like savings and checking. However, holders must be aware of distinct timelines for investment properties: securities and debt obligations have a longer dormancy period of 5 years, while Certificates of Deposit are reportable after 6 years.

Accelerated timelines apply to wages and utility deposits, which become reportable after just 1 year. Even shorter is the 6-month dormancy period for utility refunds. Conversely, travelers checks follow the standard 15-year rule.

Rhode Island specifically exempts gift certificates from reporting. For reportable items, the state allows an aggregate limit of $50, permitting holders to group items valued under this amount without detailed owner information.
