Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That § 65.2-712 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:
§ 65.2-712. Reporting incarcerations, change in earnings, remarriage, change in student status; recovery of payments procured by fraud, misrepresentation, or unreported change in condition.
So long as an employee or statutory dependent pursuant to § 65.2-515
receives payment of compensation under this title, any such
employee person shall have a duty immediately to disclose to the
employer, when the employer is self-insured, or insurer in all other cases, any
incarceration, return to employment or, increase in his
earnings, remarriage or change in his status as a full-time student.
Any payment to a claimant by an employer or insurer which is later determined
by the Commission to have been procured by the employee or statutory
dependent under § 65.2-515 by fraud, misrepresentation, or failure to
report any incarceration, return to employment or, increase in
earnings, remarriage or change in his status as a full-time student may
be recovered from the claimant or statutory dependent by the employer or
insurer either by way of credit against future compensation payments due the
claimant or statutory dependent, or by action at law against the
claimant or statutory dependent. The Commission shall provide for
notification to the statutory dependent of his obligation under this
section.
