The 'money in' option

'Money in' is a term used to explain the process of receiving money from a debtor.  This money is provided by cheque (covering the whole overpayment) or a number of periodic cheques (dividing the overpayment into more easily manageable amounts, where the overpayment is large).

This arrangement is usually adopted by employees no longer in receipt of compensation payments.  It may also relate to service providers who discover that they have been overpaid.  Employers may also use this option.

Until cheques are manually receipted by Comcare's Financial Services area, the overpayment record will not reflect that recovery has been completed or that the account has been closed.
