The Settlement Claims Administrator has completed a preliminary review of more than 6,000 settlement claims and today, May 8, mailed determination letters to all claimants, notifying you of what portion of your claim is approved and what portion denied. So now more than ever, keep watching your mail.

Claimants will have a short time to submit an appeal of any portion of the claim the Administrator denies. Then, once those appeals are resolved, the Administrator will be able to calculate payment amounts and begin issuing payments. For now, it’s impossible for us to know how long this will take. We expect the notices, appeals and calculation will require a few months’ work.

Thank you for your patience. Keep safe.
