What Is Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA)?

Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA) is a government-funded program designed to help low-income families with children meet basic living expenses while they work toward becoming self-sufficient. It’s part of Florida’s TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) initiative and is administered by the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF).

Here’s what TCA does in simple terms:

  • Provides monthly cash payments to families in financial need
  • Supports parents and caregivers while they look for work, attend school, or complete job training
  • Helps with immediate needs like rent, groceries, utilities, clothing, and transportation

Who TCA Helps:

  • Families with children under age 18
  • Pregnant women in their third trimester (if unable to work)
  • Relative caregivers (like grandparents or aunts) taking care of kids

TCA isn’t meant to be permanent—it’s there to bridge the gap while recipients take steps toward employment and financial stability. It’s often paired with other support like food assistance (SNAP), Medicaid, and child care subsidies.

In return for this support, recipients must meet eligibility conditions, such as enrolling in work programs, ensuring school attendance, and keeping children’s immunizations up to date.

How Much Will You Get? TCA Benefit Amounts

Benefit amounts depend on the age of each eligible child in your household. Here’s what families can expect:

  • $242/month for children ages 0–5
  • $249/month for children ages 6–12
  • $298/month for children ages 13–17

The more eligible children you have, the higher the total monthly benefit. For example, a parent with a 3-year-old and two teenagers might receive nearly $840 per month, assuming no countable income.

How to Stay Eligible for TCA

Receiving TCA benefits means you’ve got to stick to the program rules. If you miss a requirement, your payments could be delayed or stopped. Here are the key areas to watch:

School Attendance

Children between ages 6 and 18 must attend school regularly. Frequent unexcused absences could impact your eligibility.

Immunizations

Kids under 5 years old must have up-to-date vaccination records. These must be submitted and verified as part of your case review.

Cooperation with Child Support Enforcement

If you’re not living with your child’s other parent, the state expects you to cooperate in seeking child support, unless you’re legally exempt (e.g., safety concerns due to domestic violence).

Work Requirements for Adults

Adults receiving TCA typically must participate in job search programs, training, or employment. The DCF Work Program offers help with job placement, transportation, and child care.

48-Month Lifetime Limit: Know the Clock

Most adults can receive TCA for up to 48 months total in their lifetime. Once you reach that cap, your case will be closed unless you fall under a special exemption (such as child-only cases or the Relative Caregiver Program).

Now’s a good time to check your benefit history to see where you stand. The closer you get to the limit, the more important it is to connect with job training and self-sufficiency programs.

Delayed or Missing Payment? Here’s What To Do

If your payment didn’t show up on your expected date, here are common reasons and fixes:

  • You missed a redetermination deadline
  • Documents like immunization records are missing or outdated
  • There was a change in your household or income
  • You received a request for more information and didn’t respond

To check your payment status or report an issue, call 1-866-762-2237 or log into your ACCESS Florida account.
