The Electronic Proof of Claims (ePOC) is a program designed to streamline claims processing by allowing Creditors to file a Proof of Claim,  Amended Proof of Claim, and Withdraw of Claim over the internet from a link on the Court's web site (www.neb.uscourts.gov).  The ePOC program will automatically prepare the Official Bankruptcy Proof of Claim (410) Form (for both filing a claim and amending a claim) based on the information entered into the program.  When the filing for Proof of Claim, Amended Claim or Withdrawl of Claim is complete, a confirmation message is received that the claim or withdrawal was officially filed with the court.

NOTE: If you are attempting to amend a claim because the original claim has the incorrect name or address, you can not file an amended claim.  There is no way to overwrite the original name or address in the POC fields.  Contact the Court for further instructions.
