AZ SB1153

Amends the definition of "child only case" in Arizona Revised Statutes Section 46-101 to include two scenarios: (a) eligible dependent children in legal custody of the Department of Child Safety, tribal court, or tribal child welfare agency placed in foster care with unrelated adults or nonparent relatives not receiving cash assistance or licensed foster home care payments; and (b) children placed by court or tribal court order with unrelated adults or nonparent relatives not receiving cash assistance.

Clarifies that a "child only case" is distinct from a "needy family" and establishes it as a separate category for purposes of determining assistance units and cash assistance eligibility under the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program.

Adds specification that foster home care payments are excluded from the definition of cash assistance when determining child only case eligibility.
