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.
