496 (07/2026) Chapter 2:Eligibility • Section 7: Temporary Assistance for Domestic Violence Survivors (TA-DVS) overview Temporary Assistance for Domestic Violence (TA-DVS) overview Although survivors requesting Temporary Assistance for Domestic Violence (TA-DVS) program benefits often request other benefits, their TA-DVS eligibility must be determined as a stand-alone program. This is for survivor confidentiality and safety. Many of the eligibility factors for TA-DVS follow those for the TANF program, but separate determinations must be made, and separate cases must be used for documenting the case and issuing benefits.
