The state of Texas is already preparing to send out payments for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program for September.
As you probably already know, it is designed to help families with low or no income. It also helps them cover basic expenses such as food, housing, utilities, among others.
As is tradition in Texas, TANF recipients receive their monthly payments during the first few days of each month. Each recipient’s money will be deposited on the first business day of September.
If you receive your financial aid in the form of a paper check, it will be mailed to you on September 2. If you are considered a “new applicant,” you should know that payments are usually issued within three business days after your application is approved.
This way, it is guaranteed that families in need can access the funds as soon as possible. If you wish to apply for financial assistance, follow these steps; the process is very simple.
How to apply for TANF in Texas?
Applying for TANF in Texas is easy. The first thing you need to do is submit an online application through the Your Texas Benefits website. You also have the option of visiting a local HHSC benefits office.
The program offers monthly cash payments and can provide a one-time payment for families experiencing an unexpected crisis, such as job loss or a medical emergency.
TANF offers essential cash assistance, but it is not the only resource available to struggling families in Texas. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and organizations like Catholic Charities provide extra support to help families meet basic needs.
