I'm trying to pay them back. I went to get them rehabilitated like they told me to. However the income info they had on file was from a higher paying job I was laid off from. So I sent in a letter for redetermination over 2 months ago. I haven't heard anything, and I'm getting worried that they're going to garnish my wages. They already clawed away my tax return this year.

Edit 2 wks later: they're giving me the run around due to a technicality with my name and I got the letter of garnishment today. 🫠
