Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the compensation fund's restitution claim for family allowances was time-barred under Art. 25(2) LPGA
Decisione estratta
The one-year relative period began only when the fund could reasonably have recognized its error on 4 June 2012, and the five-year absolute period was also respected.
Motivazione estratta
The fund had made the original mistake despite knowing the children lived abroad. In such a case, the limitation period does not start at the initial erroneous payment but when the administration should later have noticed the error with due attention.
