10 TA/DC009: Temporary Assistance and Food Stamp Eligibility for Haitians applying for or granted Temporary Protected Status by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS)
|
The purpose of this General Information System (GIS) message is to inform local departments of social services (LDSS) that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has designated Haiti for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for a period of 18 months and the effect such designation has on Haitian nationals' eligibility for Temporary Assistance and Food Stamps. Specifically, all persons granted TPS, including Haitian nationals, are NOT eligible for Temporary Assistance and/or Food Stamp program benefits. Such persons are not deemed "persons residing under color of law" (PRUCOL) for purposes of Safety Net Assistance and are not deemed to be "qualified aliens" for TANF-funded Family Assistance and/or Food Stamp program eligibility.
