The rule centers the former record owner and defines limited first-degree family routes with additional proof; it does not make every heir eligible.
Submit the complete Commissioner of State Lands packet and the rule-required identity, title, and relationship records.
Record-first workflow
Verify the live official record at every step; this orientation does not decide a claimant's rights.
Confirm the parcel, former record owner, tax-sale date, excess record, and whether the applicable availability cohort is the earlier or later rule period.
A former owner, part-owner, or interested party who purchased the parcel at the tax sale is excluded under the retained rule.
Use the current COSL submission rule and supply every required record rather than treating a search result as a complete claim.
Funds first remain in escrow for one year; the later claim-availability period depends on the parcel's sale-date cohort and must not be collapsed into one deadline.
No unsupported form or deadline
Use only dates and filing mechanics tied to the confirmed sale type, statute, custodian, and retained source.
Collect the parcel number, sale date, former-owner record, excess amount, and COSL search result.
Document record ownership or the rule-defined family relationship and confirm the claimant did not purchase the parcel at that tax sale.
Gather identity, address, title, death, heirship, and other records exactly as the current rule requires for the selected claimant route.
