How hard is this claim to file?

If you previously submitted a consent to sue form you do not need to file again — a payment will be calculated automatically. If you did not submit a consent to sue form, you must file a claim online or by mailing a completed PDF claim form to receive a payment. This claim form asks for 2 fields and 1 document.

What the form asks

  • — The last four digits of your SSN (Your Social Security card or any official SSN document)
  • — The unique ID printed on the settlement notice mailed to you (The settlement notice letter you received from ILYM Group)

Documents you'll need

Watch out for

  • Class members who previously submitted a consent to sue form do not need to submit a claim — filing a duplicate may cause confusion.
  • Online claimants must have their ILYM ID from the mailed settlement notice; without it, online filing may not be possible.
  • Payout is pro-rata and depends on total claims filed — the more people who file, the smaller each individual payment.
  • The settlement is now closed for new claims; the deadline has passed.

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.
