If a State agency, the Secretary of Labor, or a court of competent jurisdiction finds that an individual—
(1) knowingly has made, or caused to be made by another, a false statement or representation of a material fact, or knowingly has failed, or caused another to fail, to disclose a material fact; and
(2) as a result of that action has received an amount as compensation under this subchapter to which he was not entitled;
An amount repaid under subsection (a) of this section shall be—
(1) deposited in the fund from which payment was made, if the repayment was to a State agency; or
(2) returned to the Treasury of the United States and credited to the current applicable appropriation, fund, or account from which payment was made, if the repayment was to the Secretary.
