# §2095. Recovery of payments


Recovery of payments under this subchapter may not be made from an individual when, in the judgment of the [Director](/usc/50/2001.md?p=2), the individual is without fault and recovery would be against equity and good conscience. Withholding or recovery of money payable pursuant to this subchapter on account of a certification or payment made by a former [employee](/usc/50/2001.md?p=9) of the [Agency](/usc/50/2001.md?p=1) in the discharge of the former [employee](/usc/50/2001.md?p=9)’s official duties may be made if the [Director](/usc/50/2001.md?p=2) certifies that the certification or payment involved fraud on the part of the former [employee](/usc/50/2001.md?p=9).
