Future Source of Income

For the Loan program to be considered, each adult household member must have a reasonable expectation of a future source of income to provide for the repayment of the loan.

 A household receiving Interim Assistance Reimbursement (IAR) is not eligible to receive benefits from the TANF Loan Program. IAR households receive a monthly payment from their county agency while SSI is pending. A written agreement is required to have the household’s SSI lump sum, if awarded, go directly to the county for reimbursement.
