This listing includes borrowers eligible for offset after Finance Office screening. The field office will screen all borrowers in accordance with § 1951.122 of this subpart. Borrowers meeting any of the ineligibility criteria must be eliminated by drawing a line through the borrower's name. When all borrowers have been reviewed for offset eligibility, the original list must be sent to the Chief, Computer Resources Branch, mail code FC-353, in the Finance Office. These lists must be received no later than 1 month after the date of receipt, since the Finance Office will use the information provided to generate letters to borrowers informing them of potential IRS offset. No borrowers may be added to this list by the field office. A copy of this list should be retained by each field office. If a borrower is ineligible for IRS offset due to any of the exclusion criteria in § 1951.122 and that borrower's account does not reflect that exclusion criteria in the accounting system, the field offices must ensure that the account be updated immediately.
