Duplications of Benefits Victims Relief Act
HR 6083, the Duplications of Benefits Victims Relief Act, amends a 2018 FAA law to help victims who received duplicate benefits. It extends the period for qualifying for a waiver (from 2016-2021 to an ongoing period ending when the change takes effect), increases the waiver amount from $5 to $10, and removes income limits that previously restricted eligibility. This directly affects individuals who received overlapping benefits under the original law, ensuring broader access to relief. The bill makes concrete changes to eligibility rules without altering the core purpose of the original waiver program.
