The 2017 Access Copyright Payback claim period is open from April 1st to May 31. If you’re a writer or visual artist who was affiliated with Access Copyright as of December 31, 2016, now is the time to submit a claim for this year’s payment.
The eligible publication years for the 2017 Payback claim are 1996 to 2015. Written and visual work published during this period in books, magazines, journals and/or newspapers is eligible.
If you’re not yet registered with Access Copyright and you have written or visual work that fits the claim criteria, now might be a good time to register so that you’re ready for next year’s claim period.
