The amount of money received from Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) varies by state and individual circumstances, such as family size and income. Generally, TANF provides cash assistance to low-income families to help them meet basic needs like food, shelter, and clothing. Each state sets its own benefit levels, so it's important to check with your local TANF office for specific amounts. Additionally, benefits may be subject to federal and state regulations and can change over time.

In general, if the amount of child support exceeds the TANF standard, TANF will stop. (The family might still be eligible for Medicaid.) If the amount of child support is less than the TANF standard, TANF will continue; the State will keep the child support as reimbursement.
You don't. If the amount of child support actually received is less than your TANF payment, the State will retain it as reimbursement. If child support exceeds TANF, TANF will be discontinued. (But you might still be eligible for SNAP and Medicaid.)
A parent who is TANF eligible should not have to pay child support.
no he does'nt...he is considered to be back with the family and hopefully he's there supporting you guys. money is added to help him get on his feet.
temporary assistance for needy families
A TANF , Temporary Assistance for Needy Families , card cannot be legally purchased - it must be applied for .Wrong answer, whoever posted this did not read the question clearly, the person is asking "what can I purchase WITH TANF card?"Answer: Just about anything, you can use it at banks, atm's, etc... It is cash assistance whereas the EBT card only covers food items so you can purchase your clothes, diapers, makeup, etc... whatever the EBT card does not cover. Its up to you what you buy, if you need the money you will use it wisely.
One provision that was not included in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program is the guarantee of entitlement to benefits. Unlike its predecessor Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC), TANF does not provide automatic cash assistance to all eligible families; instead, it offers block grants to states, which have discretion over the design and implementation of their welfare programs. Additionally, TANF imposes work requirements and time limits on benefits, which were not features of the previous AFDC program.
