How does receiving state benefits affect child support?
If you receive state benefits, the state child support agency will contact you for information about the non-custodial parent.

If you are receiving cash assistance (TANF), the State will retain the child support to reimburse for that expense.

Generally speaking, a TANF (Temporary Assistance For Needy Families- US) check is issued to a parent who cannot locate their child's noncustodial parent. The noncustodial parent must repay the amount of TANF checks that were issued. In any case, the woman can get food stamps from the state for the child if she has proof of temporary guardianship. She can get child support accordingly through the court that issued the temporary guardianship order.
