(Revised 7/01 ML #2697)
Regulations require a protective or vendor payment whenever a TANF recipient (1) persistently mismanages his/her funds to the detriment of the children's best interests, or (2) refuses without "good cause" to comply with the terms of the TANF contract. If the protective payee method of alternate payment is selected, SFN 429, "Memorandum of Agreement to Establish Protective Payments," shall be completed. This agreement briefly defines the conditions under which the protective payee agrees to serve and provides minimum identifying information about the household that is helpful to all parties concerned.
A copy of the completed and signed agreement shall be given to the recipient and the protective payee, and filed in the recipient's case record.
