§ 302-17.101 Agency requirements if an employee fails to file and/or amend the required tax information prior to the required date.

(a) If a relocating employee does not provide the required tax information prior to the required date, and the agency is using a one-year RITA process, the agency is to switch to a two-year RITA process and send a written warning to the employee reminding them of the requirement and informing them that if they do not submit the required information the agency may declare the entire amount of the WTA forfeited. (b) If the relocating employee does not provide the required tax information prior to the required date, and the agency is using a two-year RITA process, the agency is to send the employee a written warning informing them they have 60 days to file or amend their RITA claim and provide the required tax information or the agency will declare the WTA that they have already paid forfeited and due as a debt to the Government. (c) If the relocating employee chooses not to receive the WTA and fails to file a RITA claim or provide the required tax information prior to the required date, the agency is to send the employee a written warning that they have 60 days to file. If the employee still fails to file, the agency may close the case file and refuse any later claims for RITA related to this specific relocation.
