Did you know?  

The process for overpayments can differ based on who identifies the issue: the location, UCPath or the employee

  • If the location identifies an overpayment, UCPath will process the overpayment and send the repayment package to the location either through email or the shared Box folder.
  • If UCPath identifies the overpayment, UCPath will work with the location to resolve.
  • If an employee identifies an overpayment, UCPath will refer the employee to the location.
  • The location is responsible for communicating to the employee the repayment options and to have the employee sign the repayment agreement.
  • For those with access to the Resource Center, all communication regarding the case can be found under Case Management.
  • Note, if the employee is separated, UCPath will coordinate with the separated employee and provide the location a courtesy notice.

 

You can find more detail on the overpayment process can be found in Location Support > Operational Alignment.
