c. Grant x .90 = $311.40 3. Grant before benefit reduction a. Adjusted needs $346.50. b. Income -$120.00 c. TANF grant $226.00. 4. Income a. TANF grant $226.00. b. Add income of + $120.00 c.

Amount of grant entitled to a. TANF grant $226.00. b. Amount to be recouped -$34.00. c. Current grant entitlement $192.00

If no other changes occur, $34.00 would be recouped from the TANF grant for 7 months. In the 8th month the remaining $2.00 would be recouped.

If the benefit reduction amount exceeds the TANF grant, the entire grant must be recouped. If, through benefit reduction, the amount payable to the TANF assistance group is reduced to zero, members of the AG are still considered TANF recipients.

EXAMPLE TWO:

For one month, a TANF unit had resources totaling $10,700.00, making them totally ineligible. The TANF payment was $288.00. The unit now has $700.00 savings and is otherwise eligible.

1. Amount of overpayment $288.00 2. Amount to be retained: a. Adjusted needs $288.00. b. Grant without income $288.00 c. Grant x .90 = $259.20 3. Grant before benefit reduction a. Adjusted needs $288.00. b. Income -$0 c. TANF grant $288.00. 4. Income a. TANF grant $288.00. b. Income +$0 c. Liquid resources +$700.00 d. Total $988.00
