Division:

Economic Self-Sufficiency Program

Chapter:

TEMPORARY CASH ASSISTANCE

Overview

RULE:

65A-4.203

Personal Care of a Disabled Family Member

PURPOSE:

The proposed rule amendment adopts changes in the federal final rule reauthorizing the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families Program. School attendance by a disabled family member is no longer a factor when assessing whether alternative care exists for the approval of a need for care exclusion under 45 C.F.R. §261.2(n)(2)(i). The proposed rule amendment also revises CF-ES 2094, allows the caregiver to provide either a verbal or written statement regarding their need to provide care and to a lack of alternative care, removes the requirement to document attempts to get alternative care and removes the full-time care requirement. Included in this proposed rule amendment are some wording changes and technical changes of a non-substantive nature improving the overall content of the rule.

SUMMARY:

The proposed rule addresses the time limit and work exemption for participation in the cash assistance program by an individual responsible for providing care for a disabled family member.
