Subp. 2.

Repayments.

Overpayments of maintenance benefits or other monetary assistance caused by the eligible individual, SSB error, or by an eligible individual's inability or refusal to continue implementing an IPE or ILCSR must be repaid by the eligible individual in a lump sum or in monthly payments of not less than ten percent of the incorrect payment or five percent of the eligible individual's monthly family income, whichever is less. If the eligible individual does not repay erroneous overpayments in accordance with this subpart, SSB may exercise its recoupment rights under Minnesota Statutes, section 248.11.
