960 CMR, § 5.10
Upon receipt of the voucher, A&F will initiate the payment process through MMARS, through the electronic transfer of the claim approval data to the Office of the State Comptroller, whereupon a check will be issued to the owner either directly or through a person whom the Division has verified is legally authorized to receive the check for the owner.
For all such MMARS checks issued through a voucher, a vendor number and address must be recorded on MMARS. This will be verified to the original address associated with the check and any documented changes in address.
Where the claimant has an existing obligation to Massachusetts, the payment may be intercepted by the Office of the State Comptroller for satisfaction of that obligation.
