What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
I live in Michigan, I got unemployed in September of 2010 and applied for benefits, I called in the first time but didnt get a payment, called a second time but got nothing either so I stopped calling. Got a job with 10hrs a week but quit because the hrs were not enough. I eventually received a payment in December after I had gotten a full time job. I made a mistake and continued collecting benefits and not reporting since December. I got a call today asking me to verify my previous employments, they asked me to explain my situation. I'm a student paying my tuition out of pocket. I completely cooperated and offered to payback. The lady said they will send me some paperwork to fill out and a decision will be made. My question is, will I face jail time? I have never been and im scared, I know i made a mistake and i'm willing to get a payment arrangement.
