Any amount issued and payable on or after July first, nineteen hundred seventy-four payable to a resident of this state on or because of a policy of insurance other than life insurance, which is held or owing by a domestic insurer or a foreign insurer authorized to do business in this state or by an agent or agency of such insurer, shall be deemed abandoned property if unclaimed for three years by the person entitled thereto.

3. Such property which was deemed abandoned pursuant to subdivision one of this section shall be paid or delivered to the comptroller within the first ten days of September of each year. Such payment shall be accompanied by a true and accurate report that shall be in such form and manner as the state comptroller may prescribe.
