The Office of Child Support (OCS) has rescinded the following rule:

Rescinded RuleRescinded Rule TitlePrior Effective Date of RuleEffective Date of Rescission
5101:12‑1‑87Statewide contract for location and collection services.7/1/20067/15/2007
This rule describes the responsibilities of the Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA), Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS), and the statewide contractor that provides location and collection services to CSEAs. It is being rescinded and replaced by a new rule with the same rule number and title because more than fifty percent of this rule is being stricken and a comparable amount of new text is being added.

OCS has adopted the following rule:

5101:12‑1‑87Statewide contract for location and collection services.7/15/2007
This new rule was developed to reflect the changes brought about by the new statewide location and collection services contract. The new contract is between the selected vendor and the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services to provide location and collection services to Child Support Enforcement Agencies (CSEA) who elect to use the vendor's services.
Changes include: referrals will be limited to arrears-only cases; a description of when a referred case will be returned to the CSEA before the twelve month referral period has elapsed; and a description of the types of collections for which the contractor will not be paid.
