First, refer to the tab entitled “How to Set Up and Access Your Claim Portal”, and the “FAQ: Navigating the Claim Portal, and other general claim -related issues” tab. Before signing in or bookmarking the login page to view, please ensure to use the Tort Claim Login page found on our website.

Screenshot A illustrates the official Tort Claim Login Page from the website with the correct URL in the address bar. This official website Login page allows you to see all of your claims and entire claims history. Please use this login page to bookmark and save as one of your favorites.

Screenshot B illustrates the login page with a different URL in the address bar (Claim ID), that you will see after clicking on a “Claim Form Link” from a DRM email. Please note that if you log in using the “Claim Form Link” from a claim related email, you will not be able to see your entire claim history or cases. You will see only the particular claim referenced in the subject email from which you accessed the “Claim Form Link”. Please do not use this login page to bookmark or save as one of your favorites.

  1. After requesting a password reset, you will receive an email with a reset link.
  2. Do not click the reset link directly from the email. Instead, follow these steps to bypass potential browser caching or session problems:
    1. Copy the password reset link from the email.
    2. Open an incognito or private browser window:
      • Google Chrome: Click the three dots in the top-right corner and select New Incognito Window.
      • Microsoft Edge: Click the three dots in the top-right corner and select New InPrivate Window.

  3. During the reset process, you may be prompted by your authenticator app to approve the login request or enter a security code.
  4. If you do not receive authenticator notifications, click on "Having Trouble?" in your browser. You will then be able to manually enter the security code from your authenticator app to complete the reset process.
