Two dormant (inactive) account notices will be sent to you, the first after two years and the second after five years. Charges will only be levied if you do not complete and return the acknowledgement on the notice, or reactivate your account, within the time frame specified on the notice. After 10 years, if your Canadian dollar funds remain unclaimed, they will be transferred to the Bank of Canada.
