If the beginning or ending of the month is on a weekend, the file is not sent that week.  \nOCSS automatically forwards this list to the U.S. Department of State for passport denial, revocation, or limitations, unless a STOP has been put on the enforcement screen of the statewide child support system for passport denial. The U.S. Department of State will not accept the record if an obligor’s date of birth or place of birth listed with the Social Security Administration is invalid or the current or previously submitted name and Social Security Number do not verify or match at the Social Security Administration. If a record is rejected, OCSS sends a warning code to the State notifying that the record was rejected. The record is maintained and updated at OCSS and remains eligible for other enforcement measures. The State can update the record without having to recertify it. An obligor is automatically removed from passport denial when the total arrears balance for his or her cases is $0 .00. An obligor’s passport denial is not automatically removed when the total arrears balances goes below $2,500 .00.  \nIf a U.S. citizen finds that his or her passport has been denied or revoked while that citizen is outside the country, the citizen may contact the U.S. Embassy or Consulate for a limited validity passport. A limited validity passport may be issued for direct and immediate return only to the U.S. The length of time of validity is determined by the U.S. Embassy or Consulate officer.  \nU.S. citizens are entitled to return even if they cannot make payment arrangements on the child support debt.  \nPOLICY  \nAn obligor with a total child support arrears balance of $2,500 .00 or more for all of his or her cases will be submitted for passport denial.  \nREFERENCES  \n• 42 U.S.C. § 652 : Duties of Secretary  \n•  OCSS DCL-00-79: Department of State Passport Denial Procedures  \n1 42 U. S.C. § 652(k)  \nPROCEDURE  \nThe Title IV-D Prosecutor’s Office has two (2) options on how to reinstate a passport. First, the Title IV-D Prosecutor’s Office may enter a STOP on the enforcement screen for passport denial. The passport enforcement stop will be transmitted to OCSS in the weekly file. If the Title IV-DProsecutor’s Office wants reinstatement faster than weekly file submission, the Title IV-DProsecutor’s Office enters the STOP and send a request to the Central Enforcement Unit (CEU) using the CEU Passport Reinstatement Form. CEU notifies OCSS and OCSS forwards the request to the U.S. Department of State within 24 hours. If the obligor has cases in multiple Indiana counties or in multiple States, the obligor must go through the reinstatement process with each of these jurisdictions.  \n1. Erroneous Submission  \nIf a person has been submitted erroneously for passport denial (i.e. , wrong person submitted or the arrears balance for submission do not qualify), the Title IV-D Prosecutor is to immediately request CEU reinstate the passport following the procedure above. If the obligor has received a Passport Application Denial Letter from the U.S. Department of State, the obligor must provide the county with a copy of that letter. The Title IV-DProsecutor’s Office must send the letter to CEU with the CEU Passport Reinstatement Form.  \n","cbCailh7V3tpYgzJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailh7V3tpYgzJ","pdf",141361,"English","# Background\n# Policy\n# Procedure\n## Reinstatement options\n## Erroneous submission\n## Passport needed for military duty\n## Passport needed for family emergency\n## Compliance with court order","[{\"question\":\"What triggers submission for passport denial under the policy?\",\"answer\":\"An obligor with total child support arrears balance of $2,500.00 or more for all cases will be submitted for passport denial.\"},{\"question\":\"How does OCSS send arrears information for passport denial to the U.S. Department of State?\",\"answer\":\"OCSS automatically forwards the weekly arrears list to the U.S. Department of State unless a STOP is placed on the enforcement screen in the statewide child support system for passport denial.\"},{\"question\":\"What is required to reinstate a passport after an erroneous submission or other need?\",\"answer\":\"The Title IV-D Prosecutor’s Office must request CEU reinstatement using the CEU Passport Reinstatement Form and follow the STOP/request process.
