(A)The federal Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-193, 110 Stat. 2105 (1996), 42 U.S.C. 666(a)(17) January 1, 1998, enacted in Ohio as sections 3121.74 to 3121.78 and 3123.24 to 3123.38 of the Revised Code, requires that states enter into agreements with financial institutions doing business in the state to conduct quarterly matches of obligors who owe past-due support with funds on deposit in the financial institution.

(B)The office of child support (OCS) in the Ohio department of job and family services (ODJFS) is authorized to enter into account information access agreements with financial institutions doing business in this state and with financial institutions doing business in other states.

OCS has joined an alliance of states for the purpose of participating in the financial institution data match (FIDM) program with financial institutions doing business in Ohio. The alliance facilitates the use of the FIDM program with a single state financial institution (SSFI) that does business in Ohio and with SSFIs in other states that do business only within the state in which they are located. A "single state financial institution" is a financial institution conducting business in only one state.
