I read this post by texasworker https://forum.freeadvice.com/workplace-injuries-worker-s-compensation-32/tx-unemployment-benefits-overpayment-383541.html
I am glad I found the post was afraid TWC would garnish my wages I owe 1,854.00 and making 8.70 trying to support 3 dependents with a 625.00 monthly rent. I had worked for an employer 2 days when I had a unreported injury on my ankle on the 2nd day. I quit working there after 2nd day after a day passed my ankle healed fine. I told TWC it was to hazardous to work there. Their tone during the interview was to laugh at the situation. I had worked 13 hours two 15min breaks 30min lunch had I stayed I would have worked 15 -16 hours. TWC told me I should have negotiated with them to do light work in a warehouse that has no light work. Also from what employees tell me is they are known for putting people on suspension. Thats the story about that but what I most concerned with is paying them back what happens if I don't pay them back, what happens if I don't pay the minimum 130.00 and only pay 10.00?
