Nebraska LB379 extends the maximum time limit for cash assistance from 24 to 60 months for families with children.
Nebraska LB379 amends the Welfare Reform Act to extend the maximum time limit for cash assistance from 24 to 60 months for recipient families with children. The bill also includes provisions for extending the time limit if the state fails to meet the terms of a self-sufficiency contract, beginning the time period within the first month of eligibility, and reimbursing work-related child care expenses even if economic self-sufficiency has not been achieved. The bill repeals the original section 68-1724 and replaces it with these new provisions.
