Description
The Alberta government maintains a central registry of property that has been presumed abandoned by its owner. In these cases, the person or entity that keeps or maintains property is required to report and transfer the abandoned property or its cash equivalent to Alberta Tax and Revenue Administration (TRA). Any person with a legal claim to the property can file a claim, within 10 years of TRA receiving the property. The document below explains the file format requirements to submit property to TRA by uploading an XML file. A detailed XML schema file is also available to help property holders ensure that their file is in the correct format.
