State and local tax
In SALT regulation, the only consistency is inconsistency and the penalties for noncompliance can be steep.
Forward-thinking solutions you can depend on
State unclaimed property laws generally require “holders” to report and remit a multitude of property types - such as checks, credits, royalty suspense balances, bank and brokerage accounts, securities holdings, and unredeemed gift card values - that have been unclaimed by an owner or inactive for a statutorily defined period of time.
Frequent legislative changes, administrative reinterpretations, and audit and enforcement activity creates complex challenges for entities that hold and generate unclaimed property liabilities.
Whether responding to an unclaimed property audit notice, completing annual compliance obligations, or taking other proactive steps for risk identification and mitigation, KPMG’s dedicated unclaimed property professionals offer deep technical knowledge, unique solutions, technological aptitudes, and strong relationships with state unclaimed property administrators to help organizations across a broad range of industries identify and resolve known and unknown unclaimed property risks.
