What type of punishment will I receive for first time offense food stamp fraud?

I’ve been investigated for food stamp fraud for the amount of $20,200 from 2020-2022. I’ve been instructed to sign a waiver for the disqualification hearing if I agree to pay the overpayment balance. It also says by signing the waiver, it does not mean I won’t be charged with criminal action. This is my first offense, and I’ve never been in trouble with the law except for one speeding ticket in 31 years.
