Documents you'll need
Watch out for
- Online filing requires the Class Member ID from the notice letter — do not begin the form without it
- Electronic payment is available for online claims only; mailed forms result in a paper check
- Documented losses and alternate cash payment are separate tracks — you cannot combine them
- The final alternate cash payment amount is pro rata and depends on total claims filed, so the figure will differ from any estimate
- The claim deadline has passed; verify with the settlement administrator whether late claims are accepted before filing
