Is there a statute of limitations associated with qui tam or FCA suits?
Yes. The federal FCA’s statute of limitations is tiered as follows: a qui tam action must be brought: a. within 6 years after the date on which the false claim is made; b. within 3 years after the date on which the facts material to the right of action are known or reasonably should have been known by the official of the United States charged with responsibility to act in the circumstances; but c. in no event more than 10 years after the date on which the violation(s) is committed.
