N.J. Admin. Code § 17:43-1.3
On a weekly basis, the Office of Information Technology (OIT) shall perform a computer match of the data on the two lists described in 17:43-1.1 and 1.2 to ascertain the existence of a social security number match and shall notify both the Higher Education Student Assistance Authority (HESAA) and the Division of State Lottery (Lottery) of the existence of any such match or of the fact that no matches were found from the given comparison. If matches are found, OIT shall transmit a list to each agency including the individual's name, address, social security number, lottery prize and student loan balance in default. No lottery prize in excess of $ 1,000 shall be disbursed by the Department of the Treasury until results of a match involving that prize payment have been determined. In case of annuity prizes where the first installment has not been paid, the match will be conducted on an expedited basis, directly between HESAA and Lottery. If the first installment exceeds the lien, a net check can be given to the winner immediately along with information concerning the amount withheld from immediate distribution and the procedures which the debtor must follow to request a hearing by HESAA.
