(1) When a family's assistance grant is closed, services under ORS 25.080 will automatically be continued. The Division of Child Support (DCS) will notify the support obligee and any child attending school under 107.108 and OAR 137-055-5110, in writing, of the services to be provided and the consequences of receiving those services, including a listing of available services, fees, the state's policy on cost recovery and its distribution policies. The Division of Child Support will notify the obligee, and the child attending school that subject to the obligor or chlid attending school's right to request services:
(2) In cases where current child support is not assigned to the state but medical support is assigned to the state, the obligee may elect to not pursue establishment of a child support obligation other than medical child support. In those cases, if the obligee so elects, the administrator will provide only those services necessary to establish and enforce an order for medical child support, including establishment of paternity where necessary.
(3) If a case has been closed pursuant to this rule, an obligee or applicant may at any time request the child support case be reopened by completing a new application for services.
(4) If a case is reopened or reactivated after it was closed or enforcement of support was suspended, the administrator may immediately resume enforcement of the case balance the administrator stopped enforcing at the time the case was closed or enforcement of support was suspended.
