Claiming it

A Woodland Hills business claims from the Controller like any California business: an authorized person signs the Controller's claim form in wet ink, in front of a notary for $1,000 or more in cash or for any securities, and the package includes proof of authority, the FEIN and the address the holder reported. With 44% of local owners holding more than one record, it pays to search every name and address the business has used.
