Adjustments

This page gives you detailed information about why a deduction has been made from the maximum benefit amount for a week for which you claimed benefits.  If you reported working and earning wages in the week, your weekly benefit is reduced.  Federal tax is withheld by your request.   Receiving vacation pay results in a reduction to your benefits.  If you have an overpayment, your benefits are reduced until that overpayment is repaid.  If you have an order to pay child support, the amount of the child support is deducted from benefits otherwise payable.  Any disagreement about that order or the amount of the deduction must be made to the agency which ordered you to pay the child support.  Determination Adjustment is an adjustment to the maximum benefit amount which resulted from a legal determination which you have received.  Consult that determination for more information.
