The TiPSSTax Intercept interface is a fully functioning two-way interface that certifies debts to the Wisconsin Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP). Using this sophisticated interface, Municipalities can increase revenue without paying enormous collection fees.

Features and functions include:

  • Scans the database for citations meeting certification requirements.
  • Sends thousands of citations in a matter of mere minutes.
  • Automatically updates TRIP when the citation balance changes.
  • Automatically updates TiPSSCourts with files from TRIP.
  • Automatically compares the information in TiPSSCourts to the information in TRIP to ensure the records remain in sync.

The following files are processed:

  • File Maintenance - sent to DOR to establish new debts or update existing debts.
  • File Maintenance Response - received from DOR to accept the Municipality’s changes.
  • Closed Debt - received from DOR to close debts falling below the threshold.
  • Posting Notification - received from DOR to post tax intercept offsets.
  • Agency Summary - received from DOR to match TiPSSTax Intercept to TiPSSCourts records.
