Project Title:  View help for Project Title ETA 227: Overpayment Detection and Recovery Activities

Summary:  View help for Summary Form ETA-227 provides information on determinations, overpayments, and recoveries of overpayments on intrastate and liable interstate claims under State unemployment compensation (UI) and under Federal unemployment insurance programs, i.e., programs providing unemployment compensation for Federal employees (UCFE) and ex-servicemembers (UCX), established under Chapter 85, Title 5, U.S. Code. This report will include claims for regular, State additional and Federal-State extended benefits. This report will not include claims under the Trade Readjustment Act, Disaster Unemployment Assistance, Redwood Employee Protection Program, Airline Deregulation Act or any other temporary Federal Program, i.e., Federal Supplemental Compensation (FSC). Such programs have their own separate forms and reporting instructions. 
The State agency's accomplishments in principal detection areas of benefit payment control are shown in the ETA-227 report. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA) and State agencies need such information to ensure that benefit payments are properly made. Data are provided for criminal and civil actions involving benefit overpayments obtained fraudulently, and an aging schedule of outstanding benefit overpayment accounts is included. 
Each State agency should maintain all documentation supporting the information reported on the ETA-227 and retain it in a well organized file for three years following the end of each report period for audit purposes.
