Some overpayments are exempt from recovery. See 0025.12.03 (Overpayments Exempt From Recovery). For overpayments that are not exempt from recovery, follow the specific program provisions below.

See 0025.12.12 (Action on Overpayments - Time Limits) for the time frame for starting recovery.

Recover overpayments from the following people who are not currently getting benefits:

●	People who were adult members of the unit, adult caregivers who were not members of the unit, relative caregivers and mandatory adults who are sanctioned or disqualified, or minor caregivers when the overpayment occurred. Do not recover from a former participant who was younger than 18 years old and not a minor caregiver when the overpayment occurred.
●	Sponsors of non-citizens, if you counted the sponsor's income and the sponsor willfully failed to give correct income information. Do not hold sponsors liable if they did not give correct information due to circumstances beyond their control.

For recovery methods, see 0025.21 (Recovery Methods).

Once a claim is set up on MAXIS, MAXIS will send a Notice of Overpayment. See 0025.21.07 (JOL - Establishing Claims), 0026.39 (Notice of Overpayment and Recoupment). TEMP Manual TE02.09.11 (Demand Letters for Overpayments).
