I would think/hope a phone call would solve this.
I am sure the credit, taxes, etc are all automated and if someone misses a payment or taxes, it immediately sends out a notice.

This is not uncommon that some situation no one envisioned when the legislation was written forces an agency to act in a way that breeches common sense but the agency has no authority to selectively ignore the law.
Our own bill I’ve been pushing is like this though to a less obvious extent.
Hopefully congress will fix this.

Fixing this would reveal the rather blurry line between hostage and foreign prisoner.

Yup. Usually the case.
Governement organization (or company, etc.) treats a person bad. Nothing is done. Story gets on the news. Same organization or company suddenly is able to "solve" the problem.

Well, their union does support Kamala-lama-ding-dong.

I suspect they’re correct in saying the law doesn’t allow them to make unilateral exceptions to tax penalties except under prescribed circumstances.

By the way, was Britney Griner a prisoner in a foreign land or a hostage?

That doesn't exempt them from doing it.
