As the result of an internal five-year rule review and to reflect the most current funding practices available, ODJFS is rescinding rule 5101:9-7-06 "Reporting County Collections." New rule 5101:9-7-06 titled "Reporting Collections and Earnings on Erroneous Payment Recoveries" now includes information on the earnings for the recovery of erroneous payments in addition to current reporting procedures.

In addition, to ensure reporting is correct at the state level, it is imperative that the CDJFS begins to report collections of benefits from past years separately from the collection of benefits that were issued during the current state fiscal year (SFY). This new requirement is paragraph (F) in the new rule. ODJFS is establishing new coding and will communicate that coding via a Bureau of County Finance Technical Assistance (BCFTA) update.

Please direct inquiries to your ODJFS Fiscal Supervisors/Bureau of County Finance and Technical Assistance at (614) 752-9194.
