A payroll deduction order shall contain the debtor's name, case number, redacted social security number (last four digits), employer's name, employer's address, the amount of the deduction, and the address where plan payments should be sent.

(b) Termination of Payroll Deduction Order. Upon completion of a plan, the debtor's attorney or the trustee shall prepare and upload a "cease deduction order."
