Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services’ Post

HFS’ Division of Child Support Services announced today that a key Child Support passthrough payment rule change took effect this month, making Illinois the first state in the nation to unconditionally ensure all families receive 100% of the child support collected for the care of the child or children. All families who currently receive or formerly received Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) will benefit from this change. Acting HFS Director Lizzy Whitehorn said, “This change will bring about fairness for more Illinois families that receive child support services, and it strongly aligns with the Department’s mission to help families fulfill their child support obligations and improve their financial wellbeing.
