How hard is this claim to file?
Documents you'll need
Watch out for
- The claim deadline has already passed — the documents state the submission deadline was postmarked or submitted online by June 14, 2024; filing now is likely too late unless the administrator has granted an extension.
- Exclusion and objection deadlines were earlier than the claim deadline; those windows are also closed.
- Proof of your transactions is required — this is not an automatic refund settlement.
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.
