Kentucky Unemployment Recipients May Be Able to Apply for Overpayment Waiver

If you received more unemployment than entitled for almost any point last year, you might be able to apply for an over-payment waiver.
Buddy Hoskinson, executive director for the Kentucky Office of Unemployment, told the Pennyrile Area Development board of directors Monday that Senate Bill 7 was recently passed.
He said the waiver is only for over-payments made between January 27 to December 31, 2020.

Hoskinson added that up until recently, they had to approve every over-payment waiver individually.

The way to request an over-payment waiver will soon be available on the state’s unemployment website.

Hoskinson said the request form would not ask for any banking information.
The letters for over-payment are expected to go out beginning next week, and those who receive them will only have 30 days to apply for a waiver.
