This bill changes how interest is calculated on unclaimed child and spousal support payments held as abandoned property. Property owners will no longer receive interest on these payments once they're paid to the state comptroller, except for specific types of abandoned property held by the state for the first five years. For those limited cases, interest will accrue at the overpayment rate (as set by tax law) minus one percentage point. The bill directly affects owners of abandoned properties where child or spousal support payments were unclaimed, altering their financial entitlements under state law.
