Effective February 1, 2010, TANF Eligibility Workers are no longer required to complete a case assessment and develop a social contract. JOBS Employment Contractors are responsible to complete an in-depth assessment on each referred individual.

 

If a TANF Eligibility Worker chooses to, they may continue to complete a case assessment by utilizing SFN 740, Initial/Strength/Full Assessment or SFN 501, TANF Re-assessment. This is a self-reporting process by the household, and the results are based on the household’s responses.

Note: Both of the above forms are available as E-forms on the North Dakota website at http://www.nd.gov/eforms/

 

The TANF Eligibility Worker can continue to manually create non-mandatory services. The Referrals Window in the automated computer system will continue to display the mandatory services of JOBS and Child Support Enforcement, and the non-mandatory services created by the TANF Eligibility Worker.
