What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
So to briefly sum up what happened to me I was getting unemployment for sometime. I had a part time job and make well under the required amount of hours working to still get unemployment benefits. Suddenly they sent a claim form in the mail to...well...reclaim benefits. However i missed the phone interview. So the next day i went to an Edd office and instead of finding out that I had to not only send in another claim form but now they're saying because of my part time job...which they knew about and approved...that I must pay back 15 weeks of unemployment benefits they have received.
I'm confused because he said I may also get my benefits back...but i have to pay back as well?
I don't think what they're doing is fair or if it's even legal.
Can somebody please let me know what chance i have at appealing my case or better help me understand what They and I can and cannot do?
I'm stressed out and I dont know what to do.
