Interstate Claims Collection

In cases where a household moves out of the state, the local office that last handled the case involving a claim may initiate or continue collection action against the household for any over-issuance that occurred while the household was under that local office's jurisdiction. Counties may transfer a claim to another state or Colorado county if the other state or Colorado county accepts the transfer. Counties are not obligated to accept the transfer of a claim from another state or Colorado county but have the option of accepting the claim and pursuing collection on that claim. Counties that accept the transfer of a claim shall pursue collection activities and retain appropriate incentives for the collection.
