Wash. Admin. Code § 192-230-090 - May I repay an overpayment by offset against my benefits?
(1) You may ask to repay an overpayment by
offset on a valid benefit year as described in WAC
192-230-100. If the new balance
available on your current benefit year is greater than the balance of your
overpayment, you can choose the amount of benefits to be offset from each
payment. However, if the new balance available on your current benefit year is
equal to or less than the balance of an overpayment on that benefit year,
offset will be done at the rate of one hundred percent.
(2) You may ask to repay overpayments owing
on prior benefit years by offset as described in WAC
192-230-100.
(3) During any valid benefit year, the total
amount of benefits paid to you plus offset credits granted will not exceed the
maximum benefits payable on the claim.
(4) If offset of an overpayment is granted
against weeks that are later found to have been paid in error or as a result of
fraud, the offset for the week(s) will be canceled and the amount will be
restored to your overpayment balance.
(5) If any portion of this section conflicts
with federal law or regulations, the federal law or regulations will
apply.
