When a mother applies for TANF benefits, she automatically will get child support and paternity establishment services through the OAG. If an unmarried mother is receiving TANF or Medicaid, the law requires her to do certain things. To get child support, she must cooperate with the OAG by naming the father of the child and giving information to help locate him.
