CHARLESTON â Some people are just finding out now that they may be identity theft victims after WorkForce West Virginia announced it has begun mailing out tax forms to those who received unemployment benefits last year.
The agency issued an ID theft warning Feb. 1 after mailing 1099-Gs to nearly 200,000 individuals who received regular state unemployment benefits, pandemic unemployment assistance (PUA), pandemic emergency unemployment compensation (PEUC), federal pandemic unemployment compensation (FPUC), extended benefits (EB) and lost wage assistance (LWA).
âItâs unfortunate, but unemployment fraud has been prevalent across the country during the pandemic and fraudsters are out there claiming benefits by using stolen identities,â said WorkForce West Virginia Acting Commissioner Scott Adkins.
