Implementation of the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 and Adoption of Rules Governing Applications or Requests for Benefits by Delinquent Debtors

Краткое содержание

The Commission amends its rules to implement the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (DCIA). The amendments largely follow the implementing rules promulgated by the Department of Treasury. The Commission also adopts a rule whereby applications or other requests for benefits would be dismissed upon discovery that the entity applying for or seeking the benefit is delinquent in any debt to the Commission, and that entity fails to resolve the delinquency.
