Does New York State owe you money?
Gentile wants to help you collect
New York State is holding $12 billion in unclaimed funds, and some of it may be yours. Councilman Vincent Gentile is telling that to constituents in his district.
Gentile (D-Bay Ridge-Dyker Heights-Bensonhurst) is sponsoring two information sessions with State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli to help residents discover whether they have money coming to them from old bank accounts, insurance policies and the like that have been dormant for at least five years and are being held by the state.
The first session will take place on Tuesday, July 2, at Our Saviour’s Church, 414 80th St., from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. On Monday, July 15, a second session will be held at the Stars and Stripes Democratic Club, 7321 15th Ave., also from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
