S 3582 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to recovery of overpayment of certain assistance; repealer

Bill S 3582 amends the social services law to implement additional restrictions on the recovery of overpaid assistance or care from recipients. It prohibits public welfare officials from seeking to recover overpayments that resulted from agency or contractor error. The bill establishes a two-year statute of limitations for commencing recovery actions and prevents recovery from individuals under 21. Furthermore, it requires officials to waive recovery in cases of undue hardship, such as when a recipient's income is at or below 250% of the federal poverty line.
