(B) one hundred dollars ($100); and

(2) shall:

(A) withhold the amount of delinquent child support owed from the cash winnings;

(B) transmit to the bureau:

(i) the amount withheld for delinquent child support; and

(ii) identifying information, including the full name, address, and Social Security number of the obligor and the child support case identifier, the date and amount of the payment, and the name and location of the permit holder or trustee; and

(C) issue the obligor a receipt in a form prescribed by the bureau with the total amount withheld for delinquent child support and the administrative fee.

     (c) The bureau shall notify the obligor at the address provided by the permit holder or trustee that the bureau intends to offset the obligor’s delinquent child support with the cash winnings.
