TX HHS Form H1190. Ending TANF Five Year Freeze Out Disqualification

The TX HHS Form H1190, "Ending TANF Five-Year Freeze Out Disqualification," is a crucial document that helps individuals navigate the process of exiting the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. This form is used in situations where an individual's five-year freeze out limit disqualification period has ended, and they must meet with their advisor to discuss their responsibilities and next steps.

The form requires the individual to meet with their advisor to explain their responsibilities under the Personal Responsibility Agreement and potential penalties for non-compliance. The advisor will also determine whether the individual needs to participate in the Choices work program and establish a new TANF time limit. Failure to keep this appointment may result in denial of the TANF case, and household members currently receiving TANF benefits may be transferred to a Medicaid-only case.

Key features of this form include the requirement for an individual meeting with their advisor, the need to discuss responsibilities and potential penalties, and the determination of a new TANF time limit. The following are key points to note:

• The five-year freeze out limit disqualification period has ended.
• A meeting is required with an advisor to discuss responsibilities and next steps.
• Potential penalties for non-compliance may apply.
• A new TANF time limit will be established.
