What happens after I file a claim?


Most of the details needed to assess your claim are asked for on the application. The more details you give, the faster your claim can be assessed.

Victim Services staff will get the necessary police, medical, and income information relating to your claim. They will also check your criminal conviction history. A decision will then be made on your claim and a letter will be sent to you in the mail, telling you if you are eligible for compensation.
