Alaska Administrative Code
Title 15 - Revenue
Chapter 125 - Child Support Enforcement
Article 5 - Administrative Enforcement - General
15 AAC 125.418 - Reporting of arrears to credit bureaus and lending institutions

Current through August 30, 2024

(a) If an obligor owes arrears of more than $1,000, the agency will report the name of the obligor and the amount of arrears owed by that obligor to a credit bureau or lending institution. The agency will make the report to a credit bureau or lending institution on a monthly basis.

(b) Before the agency initiates a report under (a) of this section, the agency will notify the obligor. The agency will provide notice in the manner described in AS 25.27.265(a). If the agency terminates its reporting under this section and thereafter reinitiates reporting under (a) of this section and the reinitiated reporting begins

(1) more than one year after the termination, the agency will again notify the obligor as required by this subsection;

(2) no more than one year after the termination, the agency is not obligated to again notify the obligor as required by this subsection before the agency reinitiates reporting under (a) of this section.

(c) The obligor has 15 days after the date of mailing of the notice provided in (b) of this section in which to make a written request for an administrative review. The request must state the specific reasons for the administrative review and be accompanied by the documentation upon which the obligor intends to rely. The agency may reject a request for administrative review if the request does not comply with the requirements of this subsection. The agency's administrative review is limited to the following issues:

(1) whether there is a support order under which arrears have accrued;

(2) whether the obligor requesting the review is the person who is covered by the support order;

(3) whether the obligor owes support arrears that are more than $1,000; and

(4) whether the amount of arrears that the agency intends to report to a credit bureau or lending institution is correct.

(d) Unless the request for administrative review is rejected under (c) of this section, the agency will conduct an administrative review within 10 days after the agency receives a request for administrative review. As soon as practicable after concluding an administrative review, the agency will issue a decision. An administrative appeal is not available from the administrative review decision issued under this section.

(e) If any change in the status or amount of the obligor's arrears occurs, the agency will report the change to the credit bureau or lending institution. If the obligor pays the arrears in full, the agency will report this fact to the credit bureau or lending institution and will terminate reporting under (a) of this section without further notice to the obligor.
