Uranium workers experiencing illnesses caused by on‑the‑job radioactive exposure can now file their RECA claims online. The U.S. Department of Justice has launched a new online claims portal.

The new portal allows users to create a profile, file a claim, and review eligibility requirements. Applicants may upload scans of original or certified supporting documents to expedite claim processing; however, they should keep all the original documents if future verification is required.

If you have questions about whether you may qualify for RECA or how to apply, we can help. Call our Outreach Help Center at 855‑230‑1339, and our team of dedicated Benefits Navigators will assist you with every step of the RECA application process. Remember, RECA claims must be filed by December 31, 2027.
