- Individuals receiving adult category financial assistance who subsequently become eligible for financial assistance under FANF may not receive FANF financial assistance for any months in which adult category financial assistance has already been received, even if the recipient voluntarily repays the Department for past financial assistance received under the adult category.

- Notify adult category financial assistance recipients applying for financial assistance under FANF of this restriction at the time of the FANF application.
