It depends on the language of the divorce order, but the answer is probably yes unless this child is living on her own and self-supporting ("emancipated"). In fact, if she's receiving TANF, you now owe this money to the State of Illinois.

How can you get divorced from your parents if you are seventeen?

As a minor who is 17 years old, you cannot legally divorce your parents. However, you may be able to seek legal emancipation in some jurisdictions, which would grant you legal adulthood before turning 18. Emancipation laws vary by state or country, so it's important to consult with a legal professional or local court for guidance.
