Fraud Warnings
Unemployment fraud is a serious crime that TWC aggressively pursues. If you commit
fraud, you lose all remaining benefits on your claim and must repay the benefits you
were not entitled to receive, plus a 15 percent penalty on benefits
you fraudulently received. If convicted of fraud, you face fines or jail
time, or both. Fraud includes:
■ N ot reporting all hours worked and gross earnings each time
you work
■ Intentionally giving TWC false information
■ Using another person’s identity to apply for or receive
benefits
You must report your gross earnings and the hours you worked each time you request
payment. There are no exceptions. See Working and Reporting Income, page 11. We
compare your answers with state and federal hiring and wage databases. If you do not
correctly report hours and income, you face fraud charges and possible jail time.
