State laws define dormant accounts for escheat purposes. Don't confuse "inactive" that are internally classified as "dormant", as they are too very distinct conditions. You can have an "inactive" account on the books for years and never have the state defined clock start ticking. Normally, I have seen accounts classified as "inactive" after a 6 month to 1 year period.
