Jobless Benefit Double Payments

A recent audit by the State of Oregon reveals that the State has been issuing double unemployment benefits to Oregonians.

Oregon offers two different unemployment systems, and while residents are only supposed to sign up with one, some people have signed up for both and have been receiving double payments.

People who received double payments have been sent letters asking for repayment, but the letters come with a waiver form to challenge the request for repayment.

Most waivers are approved.
