The filing deadline shown on the AbsolutePokerClaims.com website is June 9. I would expect, based on the way the FTP process went, that the first wave of remission payments (those who are just claiming the amount they already have on record as the balance) will be sent by the end of the year, or first quarter 2018. You give them a banking account (ABA Routing # and Account #) to send the money to by ACH. If the ACH transfer doesn't work (they messed up bank account numbers for a lot of people), then they mail a check a couple weeks later to the mailing address you provide.

100%. The money they got from the settlement with PokerStars exceeds all the money owed to players from FTP, AB and UB, so there shouldn't be any issue in paying out the full amounts.

TIN= Taxpayer Identification Number. In most cases, this is your Social Security number. TIN would usually be for someone who doesn't have a SSN (non-resident alien, foreigner, etc.). Call them and ask what to do if you don't want to enter your SSN online.
