Texas Finances and Economic Development
As guardian of the state’s finances, the Comptroller serves every citizen of the state. Legislators rely on the Comptroller’s office to chart the course of the Texas economy, produce annual financial reports and estimate future state revenues. State agencies trust the Comptroller to pay their bills and issue paychecks to their employees. Local officials and businesses look to this office for economic development guidance and data analysis. And all Texas residents depend on our agency to safeguard their tax dollars and ensure that they are handled wisely.

Texas is currently holding more than $2.5 billion in cash and other valuables waiting for the rightful owners to claim. It's never too late to make a claim. It's your money, and we want you to get it back.
