FORM ACF-202 – TANF CASELOAD REDUCTION REPORT

OMB Control No.: 0970-0338 Expiration Date: 12/31/2025 Page 7 of 10 Date of Completion 12/15/2025 State: NEBRASKA Fiscal Year to which credit applies: 2026 1. Name of eligibility change: Time Limits 2. Implementation date of eligibility change: October 1, 2007 3. Description of policy, including the change from prior policy: Nebraska eliminated the state’s time limit of 24 months within a 48 month period and adopted the federal 60 month lifetime limit. ADC recipient families that include an adult or minor parent who meets the definition of a work-eligible individual are subject to the time limit, unless otherwise exempt. Families subject to the time limit may receive an ADC cash payment for which they are eligible for a total of 60 months in a lifetime. The 60-month lifetime limit begins with the first month the family is determined to be eligible for and receives ADC cash assistance and includes any months of TANF benefits received in another state.

4. Description of the methodology used to calculate the estimated impact of this eligibility change: (attach supporting materials to this form) During FFY2007, an average of 5 cases per month were closed due to the 24/48 month time limit. Under the new policy, these cases would now remain open. In FFY2025, an average of 2 cases closed per month due to the 60- month time limit. The net effect is a monthly increase of 3 cases per month. The median length of time on assistance in September 2025 is 10 months. The typical (median) length of time is based on the total number of ADC months in a current spell. A current spell is the most recent number of consecutive months of ADC grant payments ending in the current month. Using the median length of time on assistance, once on assistance, these families are estimated to remain on for 10 months.
