Title: Federal Claims Collection Standards 
Abstract: The Federal Claims Collection Standards prescribe basic standards for Federal agencies for collection of nontax 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.
