New York Unemployment Fraud Penalties

What happen after you paid restiution to your claim.

what is the penality for collecting unemployment while out of the country for 10 weeks do to family emergency

As an employer, what can we do if our former employee who is collecting benefits has been working another job? Thanks

I am in the military and stationed in San Diego, CA. My wife is was collecting New York unemployment based on relocating due to my military orders. She had been looking for work for 9 months and just landed a job last month. Since we live paycheck to paycheck and she would have to wait 3 weeks to get her first check, she continued to claim benefits for those weeks so we could cover our regualr bills even though she worked a few days during those weeks as a probationary period. We just received a letter stating that it was reported that she had worked those weeks and continued to claim benefits. She is now nervous about the represcussions, it was only to cover our bills and we expected if anything for the money to be taken out of our tax return come the end of the year, but now I'm reading that if found guilty at all it's considered fraud and could face jail time. We are honest hard working people and we don't try to get over on the system nor do we want to become dependant on it, but bills are bills and they need to be paid. Could someone give me some insight as to what will happen? I figured at most we would have to pay the benefits back in full and maybe incur a fine of some sort, interest on the payments and lose eligibility of benefits in the future. I just want to put her mind at ease because she is a nervous wreck about this....Please if you know anything about it, let me know I'd appreciate it...

I was unemployment almost 3 yrs ago, collected for awhile then received a letter stating iowed them almost $9,000. Said i refused a job but anyways, I have recently filed a new clain in NY. I recieved a letter stating if i was accepted that I would recieve so n so. Now I know I will be accepted I do meet all requirements, so will they garnish my unemployment money or take a percentage? Im willing to pay some but I cant afford to have them take it all, I have kids n a family to support!

I took a trip and I logged on from another country. I had an emergency it wasn't a vacation. Now they have asked me for my passport... What are the penalties for 4 weeks and what advice can I get from you.

is unemployment fraud always a federal crime when you work for the U S P S? My son worked part time as a postal carrier and received probation and restitution for a misdemeanor plea.

I had an appeal. The employer was caught in misrepresenting and lying about a contract that never existed. Additionally they without notice cut my salary 80% and made me per diem- they also changed my title to a position i am not trained in. Additionally I was threatened to not speak of administration or I would not get a job I was told "it would be dangerous"- i informed the judge of this and records indicating such dialogues. So i had quit.

My question is now that the employer has been caught in fraud and unethical behavior what happens to them?
