Preventing Access to TANF for Illegal Aliens
Title IV of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA), P.L. 104-193, as amended, limits TANF and other “federal public benefits” to American citizens and qualified aliens. Illegal aliens are not citizens or qualified aliens, and thus not eligible for TANF benefits. More information can be found in the 1998 Office of Family Assistance (OFA) Information Memorandum.
This webpage provides resources intended to help state TANF agency staff prevent unlawful services to illegal aliens.
