How to file this claim

AIC's systems were hit by a cyberattack in November 2023 and your Social Security number, date of birth, or financial information may have been exposed. To get any money from this settlement, you need to file a Claim Form by July 22, 2026. The site doesn't spell out exact payment amounts, but you won't see a cent without submitting.

  6. The Final Approval Hearing is set for August 6, 2026 — no action needed on your part, just be aware payment won't come before that.

Documents you'll need

  • Documentation of any out-of-pocket losses or expenses tied to the data breach (if claiming reimbursement)

Watch out for

  • The opt-out and objection deadlines were June 22, 2026. If you missed them, you're still in the class and can file a claim — you just can't opt out or object anymore.
  • Notices went out April 23, 2026. Didn't get one but think your AIC data was involved? Call (833) 386-6521 to sort it out.
  • If you skip filing entirely, you get nothing and also lose the right to sue AIC separately over this incident.
  • No money moves until the court gives final approval at or after the August 6, 2026 hearing.

We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
