How to file this claim
- Check whether you submitted a consent to sue form previously — if yes, no further action is needed.

- When filing online, enter your ILYM ID from your settlement notice and the last four digits of your Social Security number.
- If mailing, send the completed PDF form to ILYM Group Inc., P.O. Box 2031, Tustin, CA 92781, or email it to claims@ilymgroup.com.

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.
