CAMTL 128 (Five Year Review State Tax Refund Offset Program)
Cash Assistance Manual Transmittal Letter No. 128
June 19, 2017
TO: All Cash Assistance Manual Holders
FROM: Cynthia C. Dungey, Director
SUBJECT: Five year review state tax refund offset program

In accordance with section 106.03 of the Ohio Revised Code (ORC), each state agency is required to review each of its rules in the Ohio Administrative Code a minimum of once every five years. The intent of the review is to ensure that Administrative Code rules are clearly written and that program requirements are accurate, up-to-date and clearly expressed. To the extent possible, unnecessary paperwork will be eliminated, local agencies will be given increased flexibility, and any adverse impact on businesses will be eliminated or reduced. As a result of the review, the agency may amend the rule; rescind the rule; or continue the rule without amendment.

The rule has been subject to a review by the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review (JCARR). The rule will become effective on 07/01/2017.
