WAC 192-230-120. Will a settlement offer be accepted if my overpayment is the result of fraud, misrepresentation, or willful nondisclosure?

Except in unusual circumstances, a settlement offer will not be accepted when your overpayment is the result of fraud, misrepresentation, or willful nondisclosure. Unusual circumstances that may warrant a negotiated settlement of the overpayment and associated penalties include, but are not limited to, long-term or terminal illness, severe permanent disability, or other circumstances that seriously impair your long-term ability to generate income.
