INDIANAPOLIS – Hoosiers who have been waiting several weeks for the federal pandemic unemployment benefits to resume will receive back pay to cover the weeks they were eligible and were not paid, ing to the Indiana Department of Workforce Development.

The Indiana Department of Workforce Development is demanding some people pay back thousands of dollars in unemployment benefits they received during the pandemic.

Payments on your overpayment balance can be made in person at the Department of Workforce Development at 10 North Senate Avenue in Indianapolis, online at payingov.com/dwd, by U.S. Mail, or by phone 888-877-0450. If in person, DWD will accept payments in the form of a check, money order or exact cash.

Claimants must submit an Overpayment Waiver Request application for consideration. The Department will evaluate the request and issue a determination to the claimant. The application can be found at .unemployment.IN.gov under “Forms and Downloads.” Certain exclusions apply.

The claimant may request a waiver of overpayment by completing the Overpayment Waiver Request application (“waiver request”) at any time after the gross overpayment notice is issued, or if the underlying determination is appealed, at any time after the date of the final decision.

The major causes of disqualification from benefits are voluntary separation from work, discharge for misconduct, refusal of suitable work, and unemployment due to a labor dispute.

For example, if you were fired for coming to work intoxicated, committing a crime, falsifying your job application, knowingly breaking workplace rules, or intentionally damaging the employer's property, you will not be eligible for benefits.
