Documents you'll need
Watch out for
- All cash payments are subject to pro rata reduction if the total claims filed exceed the aggregate settlement fund cap
- Mailed claims must be postmarked by the claim deadline; online submissions must also be completed by that same deadline
- You cannot receive both the documented-losses payment and the flat no-documentation cash payment — choose one
- You must use the unique ID and PIN from your notice to file online; without them you may need to use the mail-in form
