Individuals receiving a reduced TANF benefit (clothing and personal needs allowance) as a result of a special living arrangement are not subject to a prorated TANF benefit upon return to the household.

• The individual is eligible for the full TANF Basic Standard of Need as of the first day of the month of return if the TANF Eligibility Worker is notified of the individual’s return to the home in the month of return or within 10 days from returning home.  
• The individual’s eligibility for the full TANF Basic Standard of Need begins the first day of the month in which the TANF Eligibility Worker is notified of the individual’s return to the home, when a request is not received in the month of return or within 10 days from the date the individual returned home.
