Good morning Heather,
I looked up dormant funds and found an IC 36-1-8-5(a) & (b) in a old City/Town manual regarding the issue.
I've tried to go on the State's website • review the cu - statute, but it's not working right now.
The receipt would be posted to 391.3 according to the current City/Town manual.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks for checking with SBOA, r
