(1) the name and social security number of the individual whose dividend is being claimed;

(2) the amount the individual owes the university; and

(3) a statement that

(A) the amount claimed is in default under AS 14.40.251 ;

(B) the university has notified the individual that future permanent fund dividends will be taken to satisfy the claim;

(C) the individual was notified of the right to request a hearing and allowed 30 days after the date of the notice described in (B) of this paragraph to request the university to hold a hearing on the claim;

(D) the claim has not been contested or, if contested, the issue has been resolved in favor of the university; and

(E) if the claim has been contested and resolved in favor of the university, no appeal is pending, the time limit for filing an appeal has expired, or the appeal has been resolved in favor of the university.

(b) The University of Alaska shall notify the individual of a claim under (a) of this section. The notice shall be sent to the address provided in the individual's permanent fund dividend application and must provide the following information:

(1) the amount of the claim;
