PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — The state of Florida is looking to collect unemployment money that they said may have been paid out in error. People tell Channel 9 that it was hard to get their money from the state, and years later, some are asking to pay some back. Overpayment checks will be canceled after 90 days, the DEO said. Anyone with a physical check in hand can void it and send it back.
