Michigan UIA offers $55M settlement for workers wrongly asked to repay pandemic unemployment benefits.

Michigan Unemployment Insurance Agency (UIA) offers a $55M settlement for workers wrongly asked to repay pandemic unemployment benefits. A website at Michigan.gov/UIA allows workers to file claims, opt out or learn more about the settlement. The class action lawsuit resolves a claim that workers faced collections without due process. Eligible claimants can receive reimbursement for amounts collected by the agency.
