PURPOSE

PROCEDURES

2.2 However, if overpayments are excessive and cannot be collected from future payments cheques are to be returned to SSC paying offices for recalculation and reissue.

2.3 It must be noted that if departments do not use discretion regarding the above, SSC's ability to meet the 90 day implementation period could be compromised.
