The State Revenue Office Victoria holds money that businesses could not return to its owners, such as forgotten bank accounts, uncashed cheques and unpaid wages, and pays it out to people who claim it.

The office publishes two yearly series from 2004-05: the number of claims it processed and the amount it paid out.

State Revenue Office Victoria releases these 2 tables as one dataset on its portal, so every table here shares the version date 2026-04-20. Each table has its own page with a format picker, a field list, a sample record and its version history.

Also called: SRO unclaimed money claims, SRO unclaimed money payments, Unclaimed moneys claims Victoria, Unclaimed moneys payments Victoria, Victorian unclaimed money paid to owners, Victorian unclaimed money statistics.
