Jodie Fleischer, Cox Media Group and ActionNewsJax.com News StaffJACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Action News Jax has learned that Congress will be holding a hearing to look into the Social Security Administration demanding people pay back money they were overpaid.
You are on the hook for the money. Social Security has maintained they are required by federal law to seek repayment. The government claims Jasmine Gonzalez owes $26,880.44. She told us it happened after she claimed her mother’s winning bingo prize because her mom didn’t have her Social Security card – 28 years ago. The prize was just under $1,500 dollars, but Gonzalez ended up paying a much bigger price.
Gonzalez is not alone. Action News Jax found other Jacksonville residents who received overpayment notices from the Social Security Administration . One was for $10,429 and another was for $12,054.
