You do not need pay stubs, receipts, or copies of your job application. You need the LoginID and PIN from your settlement notice, plus accurate contact details and a signed attestation. This applies to pay-transparency class actions tied to Washington job postings. The affected group is applicants who applied for covered Washington openings where the posting omitted the required wage scale or salary range.

Why job records matter more than paperwork
Membership comes from the employer's own application records showing you applied. The settlement FAQ explains that those records establish who filed for a covered opening during the class period.
That structure removes the usual proof-of-loss packet. You do not gather earnings statements, application screenshots, or hiring emails to prove you qualify.
What opens the online claim portal?
The online form requires the personalized LoginID and PIN printed on the mailed or emailed settlement notice. According to the instructions on the Simpluris claim login page, those credentials open the claim portal at file your STV claim.
Enter your current mailing address, phone, and email carefully. The administrator uses that information to verify your claim and send payment.
What if you lost the notice?
Contact the settlement administrator with your full name and mailing address by email or phone. The claim-login instructions direct people without credentials to use that contact path for help.
Update the administrator promptly if you move. A forwarding order may expire before checks mail, so an old address can delay or misroute payment.
What limits should you expect?
Every claim faces verification, and the administrator may ask for added information before paying. Provide truthful details and complete the required attestation to avoid rejection. No payment occurs unless the court grants final approval and the settlement becomes final.
The court-authorized settlement site lists a final hearing on Feb. 12, 2027, and explains that doing nothing forfeits individual payment while class restrictions remain, described on the STV settlement home page. Washington law requires employers with 15 or more workers to list wage or salary information, a general description of benefits, and other compensation in each Washington posting. The Washington Department of Labor and Industries describes that posting duty and a temporary cure period in its July 2025 pay-transparency update, under which an employer has five business days after written notice to fix a deficient posting to avoid penalties from July 27, 2025 through July 27, 2027.
