2. Transitional Child Care Referral (TCC) BGs who are full family sanctioned and become income ineligible due to new employment or increased earnings within 24 months of the sanction are eligible to receive TCC. Eligibility continues for up to 24 months from the effective date of the sanction.

Make a referral using the DSS Form 1269, Request for Support Services, to appropriate staff. Indicate on the referral that the cash benefits originally terminated due to full family sanction and the application to cure was denied due to earnings from new employment or from an increase in earnings. Attach a copy of the CAP2 screen to the DSS Form 1269.

17.16 Change in Circumstances/ Reapplication For TANF If the TANF family's circumstances change, the family reapplies for TANF and appears to meet all other eligibility criteria, the adult must demonstrate compliance for 30 days in order to cure the sanction. If the individual meets the criteria for legal cause, the case should be approved by lifting the sanction.
