(a) Upon receipt of an application for services for a child under AS 25.27.100 , notification that a child is receiving public assistance or is in state-sponsored foster care or custody, or a request for services for a child from a child support enforcement agency of another state under AS 25.25 (Uniform Interstate Family Support Act) or a similar law of another state, the agency will initiate an administrative enforcement action against the obligor if there is a valid child support order in effect with respect to the child.
(b) The agency will initiate an administrative enforcement action by sending a letter of introduction to the obligor and the custodial parent by first class mail or by electronic means, or, if public assistance is being paid on behalf of the child, by sending a notice of public assistance to the obligor and the custodial parent by certified mail. The agency will also send a copy of the letter of introduction or notice of public assistance to a child support enforcement agency another state, if appropriate. The agency will send the letter or notice within 30 days after the agency knows the identity and address of the obligor. The notice must identify the child support order being enforced, the amount of the ongoing child support obligation, and the amount of arrears, if any, that the obligor currently owes. Notice is considered to have been given when sent to the last known and verified address of the obligor.
(c) A party may contest a letter or notice under (b) of this section, including the amount of arrears, by submitting to the agency a written request for administrative review within 30 days after mailing of the letter or notice. The request must state the specific reasons for the review and be accompanied by all documents upon which the person contesting the review intends to rely. The agency will, in its discretion, reject a request for administrative review if it does not comply with the requirements set out in this subsection. The agency will issue an administrative review decision as soon as practicable after receiving the request. If appropriate, the agency may request additional information from the person requesting the review or from any other source.
