The OIG-1 form can be found on the InfoNet under Forms, and Search for OIG-1. The form is a Word Document that can be completed on the computer and then printed out. The form would then be sent to OIG via fax or inter-agency mail, along with any supporting documentation. The OIG-1 form can also be emailed as an attachment.
If an overpayment exists and the probable overpayment amount is less than $500, consider submitting the information to the Benefit Integrity and Recovery Section (BIRS). If the probable overpayment is more than $500, or if trafficking of SNAP benefits is involved, an OIG-1 form should be completed and sent to OIG. Do not send the information to both places. OIG and BIRS work closely together so sending the information to both places could result in the case being worked twice.
