    Wow! 14 years is a long time. You might have a hard time tracking it down and it may have gone to admin fees by now and there may not be a 401K amount left.

    If you still have money than you should be receiving statements from that account. If you have moved and did not change address's they have probably been returned to the investment company.

    I do not hold much hope out for you to recover it after 14 years, however you might try one last thing and call the Department of Labor benefits division.

    Dept. of Labor's Employee Benefits Security Administration at 202-219-8776 or toll free at 866-275-7922

    A couple of other suggestions:

    1. You can try the National Registry of Unclaimed Retirement Benefits (NRURB). They are responsible with keeping over 50,000 individual retirement accounts for individuals who have forgotten 401(k), profit sharing and other company sponsored plan balances that have been abandoned: http://www.unclaimedretirementbenefits.com/

    2. Go on-line and search for abandoned property in the state you lived in at the time. If you have not been receiving statements from the 401(k) plan administrator they may now consider you lost, and by law they would have turned your assets over to the state. Every state has a program to try to reunite people with their lost assets. Here is a free web site that lets you search your state’s database of abandoned assets: Missing Money Free Search for Unclaimed Property - Officially endorsed By The States and Provinces . It’s a good idea to do a search on every state you ever lived in to see if there are abandoned assets in your name.

    Good luck - and please let us know if either of these approaches work for you.
