OCS has proposed to revise the following forms:
Revised Form | Revised Form Title | Prior Effective Date of Form | Effective Date of Revision |
---|
JFS 01849 | Request for an Administrative Review of the Child Support Order | 8/2008 | 2/2009 |
The JFS 01849 is completed by either party to a child support order to request an administrative review of the support order. The language on the 8/2008 version of the form implied that a party may request an administrative review to add an additional child to an existing administrative child support order via the administrative review and adjustment process. The language is modified to clarify that a party may request an administrative review to combine two or more existing administrative child support orders that include the same obligor and obligee.
|
JFS 07049 | Notice of Right to Request Administrative Review of Child and Medical Support Order | 4/2008 | 2/2009 |
The JFS 07049 is issued to both parties to a child support order to advise the parties of their right to request an administrative review of the support order not less than once every three years. The language on the 4/2008 version of the form implied that a party may request an administrative review to add an additional child to an existing administrative child support order via the administrative review and adjustment process. The language is modified to clarify that a party may request an administrative review to combine two or more existing administrative child support orders that include the same obligor and obligee.

JFS 07525 | Notice of Administrative Termination Hearing | 11/2008 | 2/2009 |
The JFS 07525 is issued to both parties of a court child support order or administrative child support order when either party timely requests an administrative termination hearing. The language on the 11/2008 version of the JFS 07525 indicated that the form is only used for hearings regarding administrative child support orders. The language is modified to accurately reflect that the form is used for hearings regarding either court child support orders or administrative child support orders. Please note that the 11/2008 version of the form is cited in the rule (Ohio Administrative Code rule 5101:12‑60‑05.2). However, the 2/2009 version should be used effective immediately. |
OMB 0970-0222 | National Medical Support Notice (NMSN) | Exp. 2/2008 | Exp. 3/2011 |
The NMSN is issued to a health insurance obligor's employer and, when applicable, health plan administrator, regarding the employee's obligation to provide private health insurance coverage for the child(ren) subject to the child support order, and the requirement of the employer and health plan administrator to enroll the child(ren) in available coverage. The form identifies when the employer is not required to enroll the child(ren) in coverage and provides employer instructions for when such coverage is not available. The federal Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) recently issued the National Medical Support Notice, OMB control number: 0970-0222, Expiration 3/31/2011. In accordance with Ohio Revised Code section 3119.291, the Ohio version varies slightly from the OCSE version in that the Ohio version contains information specific to Ohio law. Changes to the form include: there is a new statement that notifies the employer that information contained within the notice regarding the custodial parent and child(ren) is confidential and shall not be shared with the non-custodial parent; there is clarifying language that any organization or labor union that provides group health care benefits to employees shall be considered a health plan administrator; there is a new optional employer response in Part A ("The employee named in this notice has never been employed by this employer"); there is an added emphasis that the employer is required to return Part A of the notice to the CSEA under all circumstances and may be liable under State law for failure to return the notice and/or to comply with the terms of the notice; there is new language that when the employer is already withholding income in accordance with a monetary child support obligation, the employer must withhold for the child support obligation and the medical support obligation (e.g., the health insurance premium) in accordance with State law; the term "noncustodial parent" has been changed to "employee" to accommodate situations when the custodial parent is the health insurance obligor; the employer representative category is mandatory and there is an added mandatory health plan administrator representative section.
