What you'll need to file
From our inspection of the official claim form:
- Filing method Online or mail-in
- Notice ID Optional — there is a no-notice path
- Documentation Documented Losses require proof such as bank statements or receipts. Claimant-created notes can support other proof but are not sufficient by themselves. Documentation should show the expenses were caused by the Data In…
How hard is this claim to file?
Documents you'll need
Watch out for
- The claim deadline is August 26, 2026 — mailed forms must be postmarked by that date, not just dropped in the box that day.
- Self-prepared notes alone are not enough to support a loss claim; you need actual bank statements or receipts alongside any personal notes.
- The $50 cash option is available only to Group 1 members (Social Security number exposed). If your SSN was not part of the breach, this option is not available to you.
- If total claims exceed the settlement fund, individual payouts can be reduced proportionally — filing early does not change your share, but it does avoid deadline scrambles.
- The only official claim site is hccdatasettlement.com — double-check the URL before entering personal information.
- The final approval hearing is August 24, 2026 — two days before the claim deadline. If the court does not approve the settlement, claims will not be paid.
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.

- Check your email (including spam) and any mail from around when the settlement was announced — the Claim ID is usually printed right on the notice.
