How hard is this claim to file?
Documents you'll need
Watch out for
- You will receive nothing if you take no action — this settlement has no automatic benefit
- Mailed forms must be postmarked no later than the claim deadline, not merely sent before it
- The Court has not yet granted final approval; payments will only be distributed after approval and resolution of any appeals
- California residents have a separate CCPA cash payment option that differs from the standard pro rata payment — filing under the wrong category could reduce your benefit
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.
