Are title IV-E funds claimed before the month that the Contrary to the Welfare requirement is met?
YES NO N/A Indicate “yes” or “no” and proceed to Question 12. Federal financial participation (FFP) may not begin until the first day of the month in which all initial eligibility requirements that must be met are satisfied. (Initial eligibility requirements are: contrary to the welfare and reasonable efforts to prevent removal judicial determinations, AFDC eligibility, State agency placement and care responsibility, licensure, and safety.) If title IV-E funds were claimed before the month in which the requisite judicial determination was made, this is not an error case solely for this reason; however, all ineligible title IV-E payments must be repaid.
