A fleeing felon is an individual charged or convicted of any felony who has left the jurisdiction of the charging authorities. An individual charged or convicted of any felony in North Dakota who moves within the State of North Dakota is not a fleeing felon.

Exception: A Native American individual charged or convicted of any felony that flees to or from an Indian Reservation within North Dakota is considered a fleeing felon.

 

A probation or parole violator is an individual determined by the court to have violated the terms of their parole or probation from a felony conviction.

 

An individual is disqualified from receiving TANF if the individual is a Fleeing Felon or Parole or Probation Violator. Fleeing felons (charged with or convicted of any felony) and parole or probation violators are ineligible to participate in the program.

 

Fleeing felons and probation/parole violators who are disqualified from receiving TANF assistance continue to have their income and assets considered when determining eligibility for remaining household member(s). Disqualified individuals are permitted applicable income disregards (i.e., standard employment expense allowance, employment incentive disregard and work-related child/adult dependent care). Individuals participating in the JOBS program are eligible for Supportive Services.
