What is a whistleblower lawsuit?

Can whistleblowers receive a financial award?

If the government recovers money based on the information you provide, some federal whistleblower programs, including the IRS Whistleblower Program and the SEC Whistleblower Program, may allow you to receive a percentage of those recovered funds. Depending on the program and the facts of the case, whistleblower awards may range from 10% to 30% of the recovered funds. 

For certain state whistleblower programs, the award may reach up to 50%.

It is important to note that a financial award is not guaranteed. To qualify, the government typically must recover money, and the whistleblower must meet the requirements of the applicable program.
