Sec.  32.6  Withholding order.



    (a) Unless the Secretary receives information that the Secretary 

determines justifies a delay or cancellation of a withholding order, the 

Secretary shall send, by first class mail, an SF-329A ``Letter to 

Employer & Important Notice to Employer,'' an SF-329B ``Wage Garnishment 

Order,'' an SF-329C ``Wage Garnishment Worksheet,'' and an SF-329D 

``Employer Certification,'' to the debtor's employer within 30 days 

after the debtor fails to make a timely request for a hearing, i.e., 

within 15 business days after mailing the notice required under this 

part, or, if the timely request for a hearing is made by the debtor, 

within 30 days after a final decision is made by the Secretary to 

proceed with garnishment.

    (b) The Secretary shall keep a copy of the dated letter to the 

employer and a copy of the wage garnishment order. The certificate of 

service may be retained electronically so long as the manner of 

retention is sufficient for evidentiary purposes.
