TANF

When an absent parent returns to the home, the absent parent should be added to the case following policy in B-641 , Additions to the Household, and eligibility and benefits should be determined.

If eligible, advisors must document the new reason for deprivation and notify the Office of the Attorney General (OAG).

If ineligible, advisors must deny TANF. If the absent parent’s earnings cause the case to be denied, advisors must transfer the case to TP 07 and include the absent parent.
