administrative review may be requested by either party
to the support order thirty-six (36) months from the
date of the most recent review. Every 36 months, the
CSEA shall initiate an administrative review of a IV-D
case in which money is owed to the state

period is less than the 36 months, an individual can
request
a review provided one of the following criteria is met:
