FRAUD PROVISIONS RECOVERY PROVISIONS, FINES, AND CRIMINAL PENALTIES—For fraud, including willful misrepresentation and concealment of facts, states utilize the same methods to recover overpayments as they do for nonfraud overpayments. Most states allow criminal prosecution, which can lead to fines and prison sentences. Federal law requires a mandatory penalty assessment for fraudulent claims of not less than 15 percent of the amount of the erroneous payment against claimants committing fraud in connection with state and/or federal UC programs. States may impose civil penalties in excess of 15 percent, but collection of the first 15 percent must be immediately deposited into the state’s account in the unemployment trust fund. Although UI benefit fraud typically involves an individual’s attempt to obtain or increase benefits, it also includes employers who attempt to prevent or reduce benefits to eligible individuals, and employers who help an individual attempting to fraudulently claim benefits. The following table reflects state law provisions on how states treat benefit fraud. Refer to Chapter 5, Nonmonetary Eligibility, for additional information on disqualification periods for fraud and misrepresentation.

TEMPORARY DISABILITY INSURANCE IN GENERAL The Temporary Disability Insurance (TDI) program is designed to complement a UI program by providing wage replacement to individuals who are unable to work due to illness or injury that occurs not in connection to the work. Although federal law does not provide for a federal-state TDI system, SSA and FUTA both authorize the payment of TDI from a state’s unemployment fund. This payment is capped at an amount equal to the amount of employee payments made into the unemployment fund of the state. State law determines which disabilities and services are covered under TDI, the extent to which employers and employees pay for this coverage, the extent to which employers may pursue private coverage or state coverage, the amount of disability benefits based on an individual’s work history, and the eligibility requirements for an individual collecting disability benefits. An individual may collect disability benefits while employed or unemployed, depending on state law. Currently, six states operate TDI programs: California, Hawaii, New Jersey, New York, Puerto Rico, and Rhode Island. The Hawaii program is administered by the Disability Compensation Division of the Hawaii Department of Labor and Industrial Relations. The New York program is administered by the New York State Workers’ Compensation Board. All other programs are administered by the state employment security agency. UNINTERRUPTED PERIOD OF DISABILITY—There are times when an individual will experience more than one occurrence of disability due to the same, or a related, cause or condition. State law determines when a cause can be considered to result in a separate disability period.
Given the description above, how is a consecutive period of disability defined in California?

An individual may collect disability benefits while employed or unemployed, depending on state law. Currently, six states operate TDI programs: California, Hawaii, New Jersey, New York, Puerto Rico, and Rhode Island. The Hawaii program is administered by the Disability Compensation Division of the Hawaii Department of Labor and Industrial Relations. The New York program is administered by the New York State Workers’ Compensation Board. All other programs are administered by the state employment security agency.

Depending on the state, exemptions and elections of coverage are allowed.

TEMPORARY DISABILITY INSURANCE IN GENERAL The Temporary Disability Insurance (TDI) program is designed to complement a UI program by providing wage replacement to individuals who are unable to work due to illness or injury that occurs not in connection to the work. Although federal law does not provide for a federal-state TDI system, SSA and FUTA both authorize the payment of TDI from a state’s unemployment fund. This payment is capped at an amount equal to the amount of employee payments made into the unemployment fund of the state. State law determines which disabilities and services are covered under TDI, the extent to which employers and employees pay for this coverage, the extent to which employers may pursue private coverage or state coverage, the amount of disability benefits based on an individual’s work history, and the eligibility requirements for an individual collecting disability benefits. An individual may collect disability benefits while employed or unemployed, depending on state law.
