Title 12 - LABOR AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
Chapter 17 - UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT PAYMENTS
Subchapter 14 - DETERMINATION AND DEMAND FOR REFUND OF UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT PAYMENTS
Section 12:17-14.3 - Requirements for repaying overpaid benefits

A payment of benefits for which a waiver of recovery is not granted must be repaid in full. The Division may use any means of collection provided by law to satisfy the debt including, but not limited to, offsets permitted under 54A:9-8.1 and 8.2. Any individual with an outstanding overpayment who subsequently becomes entitled to benefits shall have such benefits offset by the debt until the debt is repaid in its entirety. However, for any claimant whose overpayment is determined to be the sole result of the Division's error, the offset amount shall be limited to 50 percent of the claimant's weekly benefit rate for each week of benefits subsequently claimed.
