The claimant has the right of appeal against the amount of the overpayment (and/or a Civil Penalty), and its recoverability. Chapter 4 gives more information on appeals and disputes. For Universal Credit, as all overpayments are recoverable under legislation, only the amount of the overpayment is appealable.
When you have been overpaid benefits, the repayments can be taken from you by: Making deductions from your benefit payments. Taking it out of benefits that are owed to you, such as arrears. Taking amounts directly out of your wages. Getting a court order for debt recovery.
Obviously, these types of losses attributed to overpayments are both material and significant. Additionally, it is the responsibility of all stakeholders to return any overpayment because every buyer is a seller at some point.
This happens when you purposely give wrong information or do not share important information to get benefits. Some common ways this can happen include: Not reporting your earnings when you start a full-time, part-time, or temporary job. Not looking for a job while you're getting benefits.
