About business categories
When creating a ReportMyUP account, you must select a business category. Choosing the right one for your business is important because it affects the properties' dormancy periods and due dates.
Tip:
If your business does not fit one of the provided categories, Corporation is a broad category that covers sole proprietorships, partnerships, mineral interest, and any other general business entity.
If your business is a life insurance company, mutual fund, or brokerage, Sovos may have a better unclaimed property solution for you. Contact us for more information.
