How surplus escheats here
When a tax-foreclosure or mortgage-foreclosure sale generates a surplus that the former owner never claims, the funds follow the path described in escheat-and-unclaimed-property: after the disbursing office’s own claim window runs, the residue is reported and delivered to the State Treasurer as a dormant intangible, held custodially (custody, not title). For Wyoming-specific surplus mechanics and the disbursing office, see wyoming Module 3.
The general statutory dormancy period and any surplus cite under the Wyoming Uniform
Unclaimed Property Act (Wyo. Stat. tit. 34, ch. 24) are needs_verification against the
primary statute. (Source: Wyoming State Treasurer, retrieved 2026-06-02.)
Claiming
Search by name at https://wyoming.findyourunclaimedproperty.com/ , then file a claim online or by mailed form. The owner, estate, or lawful heir may claim. Proof typically required: government-issued photo ID, Social Security number, and documentation linking the claimant to the reported address/property; estates and heirs submit additional probate or heirship documentation. There is no fee to file directly with the State. The Treasurer’s office also maintains an “asset finders” page addressing third-party recovery firms (see third-party-recovery-rules).

▸ For Former Owners. If a foreclosure or tax sale on your former Wyoming property left a surplus you never claimed, search https://wyoming.findyourunclaimedproperty.com/ by your name and prior addresses; filing directly is free. For estate, multi-heir, or contested claims handled end-to-end, .
