Abstract:
The Department is required to report to the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury) the status and condition of its non-tax debt portfolio in accordance with the requirements of the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (DCIA) and the Digital Accountability and Transparency Act of 2014 (DATA Act). The Department is unable to prepare an accurate and compliant Treasury Report based on the data it currently receives from its Guaranty Agencies (GAs). The new guidance will require the GAs to: age debt according to DCIA; report the eligibility of DCIA-aged debt for referral to the Treasury Offset Program (TOP); and report compliance with Form 1099-C reporting. The new reporting requirements are titled DCIA Aging and Compliance Data Requirements for Guaranty Agencies (the Requirements). The Department plans to issue the Requirements to the GAs by April 1, 2020 for implementation by the first quarter of FY 2021.
