If you had money in one of these plans

  1. If your plan was merged, your account moved with it. Follow the link on the plan to the plan it went into, and contact that one.
  2. If your plan closed, unclaimed balances usually went to an IRA in your name, to the PBGC's missing participants program, or to state unclaimed property. Here is how to check each one.
  3. Still stuck? The Department of Labor's benefits advisers help for free: askebsa.dol.gov or 1-866-444-3272. Never pay anyone to find your own money.
