Summary
The proposed creation of Rule 12E-1.0051, F.A.C., provides guidance to the public about the Department’s procedures for locating individuals to whom collections or refunds are owed, processing undistributable collections, allowing individuals to reclaim an undistributable collection and processing refund requests. The proposed rule also tells the public that if the Department disburses a payment of less than $1.00 by paper check and the check is not cashed after 180 days, or if less than $1 is owed on a closed Title IV-D case, the Department will process the payment as program income, which is split between the state (General Revenue Fund) and federal governments.
