Section 62.12 - Under what circumstances can the service or payment obligation be canceled, waived or suspended?(a) Any obligation of a participant for service or payment will be canceled upon the death of the participant.(b)(1) A participation may seek a waiver or suspension of the service or payment obligations incurred under this part by written request to the Secretary setting forth the bases, circumstances, and causes which support the requested action. The Secretary may approve a request for a suspension for a period of 1 year. A renewal of this suspension may also be granted.(2) The Secretary may waive or suspend any service or payment obligation incurred by a participant whenever compliance by the participant(ii) would involve extreme hardship to the participant and if enforcement of the service or payment obligation would be against equity and good conscience.(c) Compliance by a participant with a service or payment obligation will be considered impossible if the Secretary determines, on the basis of information and documentation as may be required, that the participant suffers from a physical or mental disability resulting in the permanent inability of the participant to perform the service or other activities which would be necessary to comply with the obligation.(d) In determining whether to waive or suspend any or all of the service or payment obligations of a participant as imposing an undue hardship and being against equity and good conscience, the Secretary, on the basis of information and documentation as may be required, will consider: (1) The participant's present financial resources and obligations;(2) The participant's estimated future financial resources and obligations; and(3) The extent to which the participant has problems of a personal nature, such as physical or mental disability, terminal illness in the immediate family which so intrude on the participant's present and future ability to perform as to raise a presumption that the individual will be unable to perform the obligation incurred.
