How hard is this claim to file?

No claim form is required — eligible class members automatically receive a check by mail at the address on file with Watermark. The only action needed is to update your mailing address if it has changed, or to dispute your workweek count if the number shown on your notice is wrong.

Documents you'll need

Watch out for

  • You cannot opt out of the PAGA portion of the settlement — only the class settlement portion allows opt-outs.
  • Missing the dispute deadline means you lose the right to challenge the workweek or pay period count that determines your payment amount.
  • If your address on file with the settlement administrator is outdated, your check may not reach you — update it proactively.
  • Part of your payment (20%) is treated as wages and will be subject to tax withholding reported on a W-2; the remaining 80% is treated as penalties and reported on a 1099.
  • Individual PAGA payments are reported entirely as penalties on IRS 1099.

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.
