Abstract
ACF proposes to make changes to the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program regulations to reset the base year of the caseload reduction credit from fiscal year (FY) 2005 to the new year established by Congress, which is currently FY 2015, and to exclude from the TANF work participation rate calculations certain cases that receive assistance payments benefits of less than $35 for a month. These changes are required by the Fiscal Responsibility Act (FRA) of 2023. The docket on https://www.regulations.gov will include a plain language summary of the NPRM as required by 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(4).
