§ 1105. Child support payments
(a) A financial assistance case shall not be closed until child support payments, minus
the first $100.00 per month in such payments received on behalf of the family, in
combination with other countable income, have exceeded the financial assistance payment
standard in 12 consecutive calendar months.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if financial assistance to a participating
family is terminated due to receipt of child support, minus the first $100.00 per
month in such payments, that in combination with other countable income is in excess
of the financial assistance cash payment standard, and the family again becomes eligible
for financial assistance within the following 12 calendar months solely because the
family no longer receives excess child support, financial assistance shall be paid
as of the date of the family’s reapplication. (Added 1993, No. 106 (Adj. Sess.), § 2, eff. Jan. 12, 1994; amended 1999, No. 147 (Adj. Sess.), § 1, eff. July 1, 2001; 2007, No. 30, § 5, eff. May 17, 2007; 2021, No. 133 (Adj. Sess.), § 3, eff. January 1, 2024.)
