(A) has the ball and its 4th down and 12, on this particular play which is a pass, (A) pushes off (B) the defender and catches the ball for a gain of 22 yards, i am looking for the way to administer this on the option and who gets the ball. im looking for national federation rule on this.

Anytime A commits a LOD penalty on 4th down, the ball will go over to B after the penalty is assessed.
BTW, the ball goes over to B because A failed to make the line to gain, not because of the penalty. So don't confuse the two.
