If Child Support Enforcement notifies the TANF Eligibility Worker of the custodian’s failure to cooperate, the TANF Eligibility Worker must use this information when determining the custodian’s eligibility for assistance.

 

A custodian who refuses to cooperate with Child Support Enforcement is ineligible to receive TANF and a sanction will be imposed. If the custodian continues to refuse to cooperate, the sanction will progress to case closure. The custodian has the right to appeal that decision. (See Section 400-19-95, Sanctions for Non-Compliance with Child Support.)

 

If the child for whom the custodian is not cooperating leaves the household, the sanction must be ended effective the last day of the month the child left the household.
