Thousands of families in the state of Texas are going to get paid just for the month of September. The deposit will go to the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) Program.
As is known, this program provides financial support to children and their parents or relatives who live with them. Monthly cash payments allow you to buy food, clothing, housing, furniture, utilities and much more.
The amount of money you receive will depend on the size of each participating family and their income. Here we tell you which families are eligible to receive TANF in Texas.
