The Office of Child Support (OCS) has proposed to rescind the following rules. The rules have been reviewed in accordance with Section 119.032 of the Revised Code, which requires the review of all state agency rules within a five-year period.
| Rescinded Rule | Rescinded Rule Title | Prior Effective Date of Rule | Effective Date of Rescission |
|---|
| 5101:12‑45‑15 | Grandparents' request for child support for grandchild. | 09/01/2005 | 08/01/2008 |
This rule describes the establishment of an administrative child support order for a child born to parents who are minors and unmarried when a grandparent of that child requests child support for that child.
This rule is being rescinded and replaced by a new rule with the same rule number and title because more than fifty percent is being stricken and a comparable amount of new text is being added.
|
| 5101:12‑55‑15 | Reporting an obligor to a consumer reporting agency. | 09/01/2005 | 08/01/2008 |
This rule describes the process of reporting an obligor to a credit reporting agency when the obligor is determined to be in default.
This rule is being rescinded and not being replaced since SETS submits the obligor electronically to a CRA and no additional action is required by the CSEA. You may obtain a copy of the rule from the child support program manual (CSPM).

OCS has proposed to adopt the following rule:
| Adopted Rule | Adopted Rule Title | Effective Date of Adopted Rule |
|---|
| 5101:12‑45‑15 | Grandparents' request for child support for grandchild. | 08/01/2008 |
This rule describes the establishment of an administrative child support order for a child born to parents who are minors and unmarried when a grandparent of that child requests child support for that child.
Changes from the rescinded rule include: revise the language and re-format the rule for clarity; remove unnecessary references to ORC sections; replace ORC citations with OAC citations. There are no changes to the existing process.
This rule replaces rule 5101:12‑45‑15, which is being rescinded as a result of the five year review requirement; is authorized under ORC section 3125.25; and amplifies ORC sections 3109.19, 3125.03, and 3125.25.

OCS has proposed to amend the following rule. The rule has been reviewed in accordance with Section 119.032 of the Revised Code, which requires the review of all state agency rules within a five-year period.
| Amended Rule | Amended Rule Title | Prior Effective Date of Rule | Effective Date of Amendment |
|---|
| 5101:12‑70‑05.1 | Requirements for initiating and responding CSEAs in interstate cases. | 01/01/2006 | 08/01/2008 |
This rule describes the processing requirements of responding or initiating CSEA's in interstate cases.
Changes include: amend the language for clarity; remove unnecessary OAC citations; clarify that the CSEA will only conduct genetic testing when the petition is to establish paternity and there is no final and enforceable determination of paternity. There are no changes to the existing process.
This rule is authorized under ORC section 3125.25 and amplifies ORC sections 3115.15, 3115.16, and 3115.18.
