You won't go to jail. You did nothing against the law. Let those that need to know about the overpayment and pay it back.

Is the overpayment thier mistake? Did you falsify info to get more money?

i was already receiving u/c benefits but I started working one month before they were scheduled to end...A friend of mine told me that i would not receive u/c benefits next year if i still had money in the account for the previous year...so what i did was got the money and put away so incase it wasnt mine i would be contacted and it could be returned.. I didnt intend to decieve anyone, I was not in a need of the money hence I still have it i and I was not trying to gain anything by it...I simply did not know what to do....I just want to return it..if they never want me to file ever again I am fine with tht as well**************
