The TANF Eligibility Worker may revert a case to open during the Month of Ineligibility if the sanctioned individual and the household remain otherwise eligible for TANF if:

1. The TANF Eligibility Worker receives notification from Child Support Enforcement that an individual cooperated with Child Support program requirements by the end of the Sanction Penalty Month, or
2. A change was reported timely that occurred prior to the Month of Ineligibility which resulted in removal of a child from the TANF household. The child removed must be the child for whom a caretaker was not cooperating with Child Support Enforcement, or
3. An individual submitted a claim for ‘good cause’ prior to the end of the Sanction Penalty Month which was subsequently approved.

Note: Once the TANF case has been reverted to open the sanction must be Cured (#1) or Ended (#2 and #3) effective the last day of the Sanction Penalty Month.
