706.280 Recovery from Closed Cases

Official source

Recovery shall continue after a case closes unless the amount of the overpayment is less than $125, or meets the minimum recovery threshold established by the Department, whichever is higher. If BSI has determined that the case involved fraud, recovery must be made regardless of the amount of the overpayment. Upon agreement by the Department and the previous client, repayment may be made by a lump sum payment, monthly installments or wage assignment. If the previous client is employed and is in arrears, he or she shall be required to repay the remaining overpayment by wage assignment as provided in 106 CMR 706.295.

Recovery must be made if the overpaid assistance unit again begins to receive assistance, regardless of the amount of the overpayment.

Nothing in this section shall prohibit any other agreed-upon method of payment.
