Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 657 § 657.510 — Refunds

Refunds. If not later than three years after the date on which any contributions, interest, fines or penalties were paid pursuant to this 1965 Act, an employer who has paid such contributions, interest, fines or penalties makes application for an adjustment thereof in connection with subsequent contributions, interest, fine or penalty payments, or for a refund thereof because such adjustment cannot be made, and the Director of the Employment Department determines that such contributions, interest, fines or penalties, or any portion thereof were collected erroneously, the director shall allow such employer to make an adjustment of the amount erroneously paid, without interest, in connection with subsequent contributions, interest, fine or penalty payments by the employer or, if such adjustment cannot be made, the director shall refund said amount, without interest, from the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund or from the Employment Department Special Administrative Fund, as applicable; provided that the director shall not allow any adjustment in connection with subsequent contributions for amounts of interest, fines or penalty payments collected or received subsequent to July 1, 1965, nor shall the director refund any such payment from the fund except that the director may refund any such payment from the interest, fine and penalty collected after such date which are temporarily in the fund for clearance pending transfer to the Employment Department Special Administrative Fund. For like cause and within the same period, adjustment or refund from the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund and the Employment Department Special Administrative Fund, as appropriate, may be so made on the director’s own initiative. Refunds of contributions pursuant to ORS 657.065 (1) shall be refunded by the director from the fund without application. When refunds of contributions are made pursuant to ORS 657.065 (1), refunds of fines, penalties and interest, if any, shall be made from the Employment Department Special Administrative Fund without application.
