People in the United States whose information was involved may be eligible for a fixed $50 with no paperwork, or up to $4,250 for losses they can document between June 2, 2025 and October 22, 2026. Three years of medical identity monitoring with $1 million of insurance is offered as well. Claims close October 22, 2026, and filing on the official settlement site is free.
When the money moves
What the official materials say about the payment schedule for this settlement, and what the administrator has published since. Every figure below is linked to the page it was read from.

Expected
The notice ties payment to the court approving the settlement at the November 6, 2026 hearing and to any appeals being resolved first, so no distribution date is published.
Read off the official notice, in its own words. These dates slip — an appeal can move a distribution by a year or more — so treat it as the administrator's plan rather than a schedule.
