        that a person owes a past-due, legally enforceable State 
        unemployment compensation debt to such State, the Secretary

                compensation debt;
                    ``(B) pay the amount by which such overpayment is 
                reduced under subparagraph (A) to such State and notify 
                such State of such person's name, taxpayer

                necessary to satisfy a past-due, legally enforceable

                identification numbers, and addresses of each person

                future liability for any Federal internal revenue tax 
                of such person pursuant to subsection (b). If the 
                Secretary receives notice from a State or States of 
                more than one debt subject to paragraph (1) and/or 
                subsection (e) that is owed by a person to such State 
                or States, any overpayment by such person shall be 
                applied against such debts in the order in which such 
                debts accrued.
            ``(3) Notice; consideration of evidence.--No State may take 
        action under this subsection until such State--

                legally enforceable State unemployment compensation 
                debt that the State proposes to take action pursuant to 
                this section;
                    ``(B) gives such person at least 60 days to present 
                evidence that all or part of such liability is not 
                past-due or not legally enforceable;
                    ``(C) considers any evidence presented by such 
                person and determines that an amount of such debt is 
                past-due and legally enforceable; and
                    ``(D) satisfies such other conditions as the 
                Secretary may prescribe to ensure that the 
                determination made under subparagraph (C) is valid and 
                that the State has made reasonable efforts to obtain 
                payment of such unemployment compensation debt.

        compensation debt.--For purposes of this subsection, the term 
        `past-due, legally enforceable State unemployment compensation 
        debt' means overpayments of unemployment compensation assessed 
        under the law of a State certified by the Secretary of Labor 
        pursuant to section 3304 of the Internal Revenue Code, which 
        have become final under State law and remain uncollected.
            ``(5) Regulations.--The Secretary shall issue regulations 
        prescribing the time and manner in which States must submit 
        notices of past-due, legally enforceable State unemployment 
        compensation debt and the necessary information that must be 
        contained in or accompany such notices. The regulations shall 
        specify the minimum amount of debt to which the reduction 
        procedure established by paragraph (1) may be applied. The 
        regulations may require States to pay a fee to the Secretary, 
        which may be deducted from amounts collected, to reimburse the 
        Secretary for the cost of applying such procedure. Any fee paid 
        to the Secretary pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be 
        used to reimburse appropriations which bore all or part of the 
        cost of applying such procedure. The regulations may include a 
        requirement that States submit notices of past-due, legally 
        enforceable State unemployment compensation debt to the 
        Secretary via the Secretary of Labor in accordance with 
        procedures established by the Secretary of Labor. Such 
        procedures may require States to pay a fee to the Secretary of 
        Labor to reimburse the Secretary of Labor for the costs of 
        applying this subsection. Any such fee shall be established in 
        consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury. Any fee paid 
        to the Secretary of Labor may be deducted from amounts 
        collected and shall be used to reimburse the appropriation 
        account which bore all or part of the cost of applying this 
        subsection.
            ``(6) Erroneous payment to state.--Any State receiving 
        notice from the Secretary that an erroneous payment has been 
        made to such State under paragraph (1) shall pay promptly to 
        the Secretary, in accordance with such regulations as the 
        Secretary may prescribe, an amount equal to the amount of such 
        erroneous payment (without regard to whether any other amounts 
        payable to such State under such paragraph have been paid to 
        such State).''.

offsets for past-due legally enforceable State unemployment 
compensation debt.
