Utah Admin. Code R527-258-3 - Enforcing Child Support When the Obligor is an Ex-Prisoner
(1) The IV-A past-due support debt that
accrued while the obligor was incarcerated may be forgiven one time if the
obligor makes:
(a) the full monthly current
support payment; and
(b) the full
monthly assessed payment toward the past-due support debt for 12 consecutive
months. The 12-month-consecutive-period begins when the obligor is released and
the obligor has contacted ORS to make payment arrangements within six months of
the release date.
(2)
ORS will use the federal income withholding notice and procedures to enforce
and collect the current support and an arrears payment, when appropriate. ORS
will use the federal National Medical Support Notice and procedures to enforce
insurance coverage for the children, if appropriate.
(3) If the obligor does not make the full
payment in each of the first six months, additional collection or enforcement
action may be taken.
(4) If the
obligor makes the full required payment each month for 12 consecutive months,
the remaining IV-A support debt that accrued during the most recent period of
incarceration shall be forgiven. IV-A debt forgiveness due to incarceration
will only occur one time per obligor.
(5) If the obligor owes IV-A arrears only,
the obligor must make 12 consecutive monthly payments to ORS based on an
assessed amount determined by ORS.
(6) The obligor's arrearage payment shall be
reassessed by ORS if the obligor's financial situation changes during the
12-month period.
