Claims Must Be Filed By March 1,2013
In $3.4 Billion Indian Trust Settlement
W hat is This About?
The Cobell v. Salazar Settlement is approved. The Settlement resolves a class action lawsuit that claims that the federal government violated its
duties by mismanaging trust accounts and individual Indian trust lands. Payments to the Historical Accounting Class are underway. The process of
considering claims for the Trust Administration Class is ongoing.
The final deadline if you need to file a claim form for the Trust Administration Class is March 1,2013.
Am I Included?
The Trust Administration Class includes:
• Anyone alive on September 30,2009, who:
° Had an UM account recorded in currently available electronic data in federal government systems anytime from approximately 1985 to
September 30,2009, or
° Can demonstrate ownership in trust land or land in restricted status as of September 30,2009.
• The estate (or heirs) of any deceased landowner or IIM account holder whose account was open or whose trust assets had been in probate
according to the federal government’s records as of September 30, 2009.
Do I Need to File a Claim Form?
You must file a claim form if you believe you are a member of the Trust Administration Class and you have riot:
• Received IIM account statements at your current address anytime between January 1 ,1985 and September 30, 2009 and continue to receive
statements; or
• Received a payment as a member of the Historical Accounting Class. If you did, you will receive a second payment automatically as a
member of the Trust Administration Class; or
• Filed a claim form already using your current address. If you have, the Claims Administrator will contact you.
You must fill out a claim form and mail it to Indian Trust Settlement, P.O. Box 9577, Dublin, OH 43017-4877, postmarked by March 1,2013 in
order to receive a payment.
How Much M oney Can I Get?
Members of the Trust Administration Class will likely receive at least $800 or more. The actual amount will depend on the number of claims and
the costs of administration.
