Whilst 1,485 claims totalling $583,741 from Avalon Beach and 2107 ratepayers have been made as of 1 Sept 2021, some 22,000 individuals still have unclaimed money amounting to $6.5 million for Northern Beaches alone. State-wide, $467 million remain unclaimed from the agency.

NSW Minister for Finance and Small Business Damien Tudehope said that some residents might have missed the claims because they have moved or changed their addresses or misplaced the paperwork to ensure the correct disbursement. 

“We know many people are doing it tough, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, with most households having to keep a close eye on their budget. This is why I am encouraging people to check their eligibility on the Revenue NSW website to see if you are owed any money, you could have hundreds or thousands of dollars that you didn’t know about,” the minister said.

“Anyone can search for unclaimed money on the Revenue NSW website. It is a free service offered by the NSW Government to get money back into the hands of its owners.”

Revenue NSW will hold the unclaimed money indefinitely.
