Unclaimed Refund

What to do if you received a Notice of Unclaimed Property letter

If you received a Notice of Unclaimed Property letter from the Louisiana Department of Revenue (LDR), you can claim your refund one of two ways:

The Department of Revenue will issue paper checks to all taxpayers submitting claims electronically or with the voucher by the deadline specified in the letter.

Any refund not claimed by the deadline remains the property of the taxpayer and can be retrieved from the Unclaimed Property Division of the state treasurer’s office.
