Important dates
How hard is this claim to file?
Watch out for
- Cash the check before the 180-day window closes — after that, the funds are deposited with the California Unclaimed Property Fund and you'll have to claim them there instead.
- If you opted out in writing by September 9, 2024, you're excluded from the settlement and won't receive a payment.
- PAGA payments are separate from class payments — you may receive two amounts if you worked during both the Class Period and the PAGA Period (July 17, 2011 through October 31, 2023).
- Your individual payment is proportional to how many workweeks you logged — the more weeks you worked, the larger your share.
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.
