When the Board discharges a debt for less than the full value of the indebtedness, it will report the outstanding balance discharged, not including interest to the Internal Revenue Service, using IRS Form 1099-G or any other form prescribed by the IRS, when:
  1. (a)The principal amount of the debt not in dispute is $600 or more;
  2. (b)The obligation has not been discharged in a bankruptcy proceeding; and
  3.
