Policy Memo: Cash Ineligibility for Drug-Related Felonies

Policy Memo: Cash Ineligibility for Drug-Related Felonies

Summary:

  • TAR F9 is authorized in IPACS to deny cash for persons who have been convicted of a drug-related felony which causes them to be ineligible for TANF, AABD or GA cash.
  • At Intake, accept the statement of a person applying for cash that they have been convicted of a drug-related felony, and deny cash at the person or case level if the conviction meets criteria for ineligibility.
  • AIS will be programmed with questions to assist with identification of ineligible drug felons, and to process denials.
