Reply to comment by swampworship in I botched my hearing for non-fraud overpayment of unemployment! by swampworship

I’m just curious, what were the circumstances? Did your notice explain why they are trying to recover the PUA?

They claim that I should have received benefits through regular Unemployment Compensation and NOT through the PUA program. So, the issue isn't necessarily that I shouldn't have been paid at all, just that it was through the wrong program.

Open up a backdated claim under regular UC so you can repay the PUA back.

You can file the claim online and request the backdate. Repayment would be handled much later, if found eligible under regular UC.
