TREAS/FMS RIN: 1510-AA57 Publication ID: Fall 1999 
Title: Federal Claims Collection Standards 
Abstract: The Federal Claims Collection Standards prescribe basic standards for Federal agencies for collection of non-tax claims. The current standards originally were published in 1984 jointly by the Department of Justice and the General Accounting Office at 4 CFR parts 101-105. The Department of the Treasury has been added as a co-signor by the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (Act) and the General Accounting Office was removed as a co-signor by the General Accounting Office Act of 1996. This revision, which will move the standards to 31 CFR parts 900-904, is being made to simplify the language of the current standards and to incorporate changes made by the Act concerning such topics as disbursing official offset, cross-servicing of debts, interest and penalties on claims, and contracts for collection services.
