VA TANF - Foster Care

Ordinarily, a child who is in Foster Care is not eligible for TANF. In the case of a child who is on a trial visit with parents or caretaker relatives, however, the child who is otherwise eligible for TANF may be eligible for TANF benefits during that visit.

It should be noted that for TANF eligibility purposes a child may only have one home. Therefore, if the caretaker relative qualifies for TANF because of the presence in the home of a child who receives a foster care maintenance payment, the child cannot also be considered to be "temporarily absent" from his or her prior home with a parent or other caretaker relative, thereby also qualifying such relative for a TANF payment.
