Southern California Edison has paid more than $410 million to nearly 2,800 claimants through its Wildfire Recovery Compensation Program, with total offers extended now exceeding $820 million. The U.S. Congress passed the Doug LaMalfa Federal Disaster Tax Relief Certainty Act, which allows Eaton Fire compensation payments to be excluded from gross income, enabling claimants to receive funds tax-free. More than 4,250 claims have been submitted as the program enters its final months, with a deadline of Nov.
