Reporting to Vermont

The Vermont Office of the State Treasurer mandates that holders of unclaimed property file annual reports to reunite owners with their assets. Unlike the majority of states that follow a fall reporting cycle, Vermont enforces a May 1st deadline for all holders, including banking organizations, insurance companies, and utilities. EscheatFix offers a privacy-first solution for CPAs to validate and convert holder data into the required NAUPA II or NAUPA III XML formats. While our validation tools are free to use, the final conversion and report generation is a paid service.

Key Deadlines

  • Report Due (Life Insurance): May 1 *All insurance corporations
  • Report Due (All Others): May 1
  • Payment Due (Life Insurance): May 1 *All insurance corporations
  • Payment Due (All Others): May 1

Vermont Reporting Specifics

Vermont's unclaimed property statutes (Title 27, Chapter 14) establish distinct dormancy periods compared to other jurisdictions. The standard dormancy period for most property types, including savings accounts and securities, is 3 years. However, holders must pay close attention to exceptions: wages, commissions, and dissolution proceeds become reportable after just 1 year. Conversely, money orders carry a 7-year dormancy period. Additionally, Vermont enforces an aggregate limit of $25; properties valued under this threshold may be reported as a lump sum, while those valued at $25 or more require detailed owner information.
