Garnishment: Transmittal Forms and Corrections Questions

Transmittal Forms and Corrections

  • If a DAT file correction is needed that would cause the transmittal form to be updated, does this negate the submission of the entire file that was submitted?

    Once your correction is made to the DAT file, if the transmittal form needs updating, you must update the transmittal and resubmit the new transmittal with the corrected DAT file(s).

  • If a correction is needed that affects the transmittal form, does the entire DAT file need to be resubmitted?

    Yes. If the transmittal form needs to be updated, the corrected version must be resubmitted with the entire file to ensure alignment.

  • If you have multiple transmittal forms, will a separate check need to be submitted for each form?

    No. When you mail the check, be sure to include copies of the corresponding transmittal forms.

  • If we don’t know the check number at the time of FTS submission, what should we do?

    You must include a check number on the transmittal form. Please prepare the check before submitting the DAT files to avoid delays.

  • What format should the transmittal be in?

    Transmittals must be submitted in PDF format.
