Section 660-3-6-.10 - Transmitting Offset Refunds To Non-TANF Clients

(1) The Department shall promptly send offset refunds due clients except that in the event an offset is made on a federal joint refund, the amount offset shall be retained by the Department for six months from the date the Department was notified of the offset. This is to avoid the potential filing of an amended return and the resulting refund of monies to the taxpayer.

(2) In the event refund monies are forwarded to a client and it is later determined that the client is not entitled to all or a portion of said amount, the client shall be required to return the amount in dispute to the Department. This could be the result of an erroneous or invalid offset, the filing of an amended return, a hearing decision, etc. The client is to be given an opportunity to repay the money in full or to arrange a payment plan to satisfy the debt within ninety (90) days if unable to pay the full amount.
