大家好！
我在著名医学中心做实验室工作。从2019 年8月到 2020年4月以FMLA休病假，用光所有假期，实验室在前四个月付我大部分工资，然后我退出实验室，无收入4个月，五月转入同系另外一个办公室。
病因是严重抑郁症，我多年单身母亲，工资工作悬于一线，吓的我几乎自杀。
现在基本上病好了，开始工作，女儿的儿童抚养费终止了，我现在一个人养她，外加车贷房贷，工资完全用完实际上还不够。
昨天部门HR 要求我退还我病假前4个月 $9200 块，我不知道工资居然可以退还，想知道这方面的法律依据。
麻烦各位了，谢谢。
所有事情要求给书面解释，拿着书面解释再来问这里。
不知道你为什么休了八个月，还有四个月是付工资的。
即使你攒了四个月的病假和假期，那么后四个月为什么让你休了四个月(FMLA只有12周，大约三个月，是不付工资的。)
所以不清楚他们的逻辑，无法给建议。
What created the overpayment?

你的标题写的是前雇主，可是实际上你还是在这个单位工作，仅仅是换了一个办公室／实验室，所以现在还是给一个雇主打工。
要是你离职了，他们基本上追不到你：要钱没有要命有一条。但是你还在这里工作，你不积极回应他们会扣除你一部分工资。
你去问HR能不能分一年26个paycheck还清，要不就两年52个paycheck还清，还能怎么样呢？
问你HR关于short term disability insurance的事。
我听说有个中国妈妈，老公病死，她一个人带两个孩子，太累。
小的孩子还抑郁了
入职的时候HR搞错少扣了退休金， 错了好几年， 后来通知我补交， 同时也给了选择， 可以申请waiver， 因为不是我的错误。 最后批准了。希望这个信息对你有用
天行健君子以自强不息。共勉之 ：）

德州法律允许在以下情况雇主克扣雇员的工资
（1）受法庭命令（比如雇员欠债被告，或者不付抚养费）
（2）受联邦或者州法律授权 或者
（3）经过雇员同意，为合法目的克扣工资（这个是你的情况）
这个法律被解释为 允许雇主在接到雇员同意的前提下，通过克扣雇员工资的方式拿回以前多付的工资。在没有员工同意的时候，在德州有雇员的雇主应该避免克扣雇员工资。
想开一点，美国人没存款照样活。
但short term的通常包在保险里，不用另外花钱。
