Article 67:13 - Supplemental nutrition assistance program
Chapter 67:13:04 - Disqualifications and collections
Section 67:13:04:09 - Calculating budget and benefit levels if household sanctioned by or disqualified from TANF

If the household is receiving TANF and the TANF grant is closed because a household member failed to perform a required action, the individual who failed to perform the required action is not counted when determining the household size. The department shall consider that individual's income, resources, and allowable expenses when calculating the household's supplemental nutrition assistance budget. This provision applies until the TANF disqualification period has ended.

If the household is receiving TANF and the TANF grant is reduced because a household member failed to perform a required action, the department shall consider the full TANF grant, without benefit of the reduction, when calculating the household's income.

If the household is applying for supplemental nutrition assistance benefits but is currently disqualified from TANF because a household member failed to perform a required action, the household may participate in the supplemental nutrition assistance program without a penalty.

If the household had a TANF application pending but was disqualified for TANF because a household member failed to perform a required action while the TANF application was pending, the household may participate in the supplemental nutrition assistance program without a penalty.
