What you need. No claim form needed — this is an automatic distribution. Eligible investors should receive their share without filing anything.

How hard is this claim to file?

✅ You do not need to file — payment is automatic.

The SEC established a Fair Fund and appointed a court-supervised Distribution Agent to pay out the recovery — if you purchased promissory notes from Ann M. Vick or AMV Investments LLC between August 1, 2018 and January 31, 2021 and took a loss, you should receive a payment automatically based on the Plan of Allocation without filing a claim.

Watch out for

  • The SEC page does not publish a specific payment deadline or distribution date — check the case page periodically for updates.
  • Payments go only to investors who suffered a documented loss; if your notes were repaid in full, you are outside the class.
  • The class period is strict: purchases must have occurred between August 1, 2018 and January 31, 2021 — notes purchased outside that window are not covered.
  • Beware of anyone contacting you claiming to be the Distribution Agent and asking for fees or bank credentials upfront — the SEC does not charge fees to receive Fair Fund distributions.
  • Your share is determined by the court-approved Plan of Allocation methodology, not a flat amount — individual payments will vary by loss size.

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.
