(c) The form which the employer uses to report health insurance coverage information shall be substantially as follows:
Amendment history: The provisions of this § 1910.28 amended March 23, 1987, effective July 1, 1987, 17 Pa.B. 1499; amended December 2, 1994, effective March 1, 1995, 25 Pa.B. 6263; amended May 31, 2000, effective July 1, 2000, 30 Pa.B. 3155; amended September 24, 2002, effective immediately, 32 Pa.B. 5044. Immediately preceding text appears at serial pages (290225) to (290226) and (267769).
Plain-English Summary (for reference only — not a substitute for the rule text above)
This summary is not the rule. The rule text controls.
When someone has a support case in Pennsylvania, the court needs to know how much money the other person earns and whether they have health insurance through their job. This rule sets up a standard way for the court to get that information directly from an employer.
The court sends the employer an order telling them to fill out two forms within 15 days. One form asks for detailed pay information, including gross pay, deductions, and net pay for each pay period over the last six months. The other form asks about health insurance coverage. If the employer does not respond, the court can force them to appear or impose other penalties.
The earnings form asks the employer to list things like federal and state taxes withheld, Social Security deductions, and other deductions like health insurance or retirement. The employer has to sign the form and confirm the information is true. Lying on the form can lead to criminal penalties under Pennsylvania law.
Committee Notes
the information requested in the following report may be provided by an employer on its own form, for example, as a computer print out.
