Current through all regulations passed and filed through September 16, 2024
(A) For purposes of this rule, "rejected
submission" means a rejection by the federal office of child support
enforcement (OCSE) of the submission of an obligor for federal
income tax refund offset that is included as an
addition, deletion, or update in the Ohio tax offset file.
(B) OCSE may reject a submission for any
reason including, but not limited to, the following:
(1) An invalid social security number;
(2) The submission already exists
on the OCSE tax offset file;
(3)
The submission is a duplicate submission;
(4) The state payment amount is invalid;
(5) OCSE cannot locate the record
that the submission is intended to modify;
(6) The last name of the obligor submitted
does not match the last name for that obligor in the OCSE tax offset file;
(7) The state payment submission
was received but OCSE cannot locate an offset payment for the offset year in
question;
(8) The submission had
previously been deleted;
(9) The
last name and the social security number (SSN) in the submission do not match;
or
(10) An SSN is submitted and
OCSE provides a different SSN.
(C) Rejected submissions appear on two
reports.
(1) The first report contains two
types of rejected submissions.
(a) The first
type of rejection on the report contains submissions that are rejected by OCSE
due to the inability of OCSE to verify an obligor's address for the purpose of
issuing a pre-offset notice; and
(b) The second type of rejection on the
report contains submissions for which the office of child support within the
Ohio department of job and family services has included an SSN for an obligor
that OCSE has been unable to verify using the process described in rule
5101:12-50-32.2 of the Administrative Code. The report contains different SSNs
than the SSN that was submitted by OCS. The different SSNs have been obtained
from the social securityadministration by OCSE.
(2) The second report lists submissions
resulting from additions, deletions, or updates to the Ohio tax offset list
that were rejected by OCSE for any reason not included in the first report.
(D) A child support
enforcement agency (CSEA) shall review the reports and take the appropriate
action necessary to resolve the issue that resulted in the rejection of the
submission. The inability of a CSEA to resolve a rejection may have a negative
impact on incentives received by the CSEA and may result in:
(1) The CSEA failing to receive the offset;
(2) The CSEA failing to receive
the full amount of the offset; or
(3) The CSEA receiving an invalid offset.
