Arizona SB1603 amends welfare definitions and eligibility criteria for cash assistance.

Arizona SB1603 amends the definitions and eligibility criteria for cash assistance under the state's welfare program. It specifies that only the income of a dependent child is considered for a "child only case." It also outlines exceptions for good cause in failing to cooperate with child support enforcement efforts and mandates that parents or relatives receiving assistance ensure their child's immunization and school enrollment. The bill further details the conditions under which a dependent child is eligible for assistance, including cases of sexual assault or incest.
