Overpayment
Next » « Previous9/11
An overpayment occurs when the Social Security Administration makes a payment that the recipient was not supposed to receive.
Whether you or Social Security discover the overpayment, it is important to treat overpayments from Social Security seriously and as if you will have to repay the extra money. You may be able to obtain a waiver and not have to pay the money back. If the amount of the overpayment is less than $500, a local Social Security office has the authority to grant a waiver.
If you can't get a waiver, you may be able to get an extended period of time over which to repay the money.
