5101:12-80-05.5 Check replacement.

(A) This rule describes the process to replace a check issued by child support payment central (CSPC) when the check is lost, stolen, destroyed, or mutilated.

(B) When the payee requests a replacement check because the original check was mutilated and the payee submits the mutilated check with the request, the child support enforcement agency (CSEA) shall mark "void" on the mutilated check and fax a copy of the replacement request and the mutilated check to CSPC.

(C) When the payee requests a replacement check because the original check was lost, stolen, or destroyed and the payee does not have the original check, the CSEA shall verify whether the original check has been redeemed. The CSEA shall complete the verification no earlier than fourteen days after the date that the original check was issued.

(1) When the original check is not redeemed, the CSEA shall have the payee complete the JFS 04021, "Affidavit for stop payment" (rev. 12/2002), and submit the notarized JFS 04021 to the CSPC.

(2) When the original check is redeemed, the CSEA shall notify the payee that the original check has been redeemed and is not eligible for replacement.
