PUBLIC AID-TANF-AMOUNT

Amends the Illinois Public Aid Code. Provides that TANF may be paid for no more than 6 months on behalf of a person under 18 who has never married and who has a child or is pregnant, unless the person resides with a parent or in another specified living arrangement (instead of providing that no aid may be paid on behalf of such a person). Eliminates a provision authorizing the Department of Human Services to adopt rules setting forth criteria under which an assistance unit is ineligible for TANF for a specified number of months due to the receipt of a lump sum payment. Eliminates provisions concerning a prohibition on an increase in TANF aid solely on account of the birth of a child. Effective immediately.
