§12602a — Title 42 The Public Health and Welfare | U.S. Code

Summary

When the Corporation pays money from the National Service Trust for someone who finished an approved national service, summer of service, or Silver Scholar position — including payments to a designated person because of that service — it must depend on a certification. That certification must come from the organization that selected and supervised the member in that approved position. If the Corporation finds that certification was wrong, it will charge the national service program for the payment or possible payment. The Corporation will decide the charge after looking at all the facts and circumstances around the wrong certification.
