§ 1208.48 Requests for administrative offset from other Federal agencies.
(a) Any agency may request that funds due and payable to a debtor by FHFA be administratively offset in order to collect a debt owed to such agency by the debtor.
(b) FHFA shall initiate the requested administrative offset only upon:
(1) Receipt of written certification from the creditor agency that:
(i) The debtor owes the debt, including the amount and basis of the debt;
(ii) The agency has prescribed regulations for the exercise of administrative offset; and
(iii) The agency has complied with its own administrative offset regulations and with the applicable provisions of the FCCS, including providing any required hearing or review.
(2) A determination by FHFA that collection by administrative offset against funds payable by FHFA would be in the best interest of the Federal Government as determined by the facts and circumstances of the particular case and that such administrative offset would not otherwise be contrary to law.
