Deposited Assets Claims

The CRT has received over 32,000 claims from Nazi victims or their heirs to assets deposited in Swiss banks in the period before and during World War II. In addition, the CRT is processing an additional approximately 40,000 Initial Questionnaires, which were submitted to the Court in 1999 by potential class members. Although these Initial Questionnaires were not Claim Forms, the Court, in an Order signed on July 30, 2001 , ordered that those Initial Questionnaires which can be processed as claim forms be treated as timely claims. The claims process is part of the settlement of the Holocaust Victim Assets class action litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Chief Judge Edward R. Korman presiding ("the Court"). For a description of the claims process currently underway, please click here.
