Having a felony conviction does not automatically prevent you from receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) benefits. However, certain states may impose restrictions on eligibility for individuals with felony drug convictions. It's important to check the specific regulations in your state, as they can vary significantly. In many cases, individuals may still qualify for TANF if they meet other eligibility requirements.

As of the end of the 2012 Georgia legislative session, under GA § 49-4-184 (Eligibility for assistance), an applicant or recipient for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) is ineligible if he was 1) convicted of a serious violent felony on or after January 1, 1997; or 2) convicted of a felony under the Georgia Controlled Substances Act on or after January 1, 1997. A "serious violent felony" is defined as murder or felony murder, armed robbery, kidnapping of a victim under age 14, rape, aggravated child molestation, aggravated sodomy, and aggravated sexual battery.
