    It depends.

    What's the situation? Where are you located? Who is telling you what, and why?

    (I'm dropping very subtle hints, in case you're wondering )

    Well, let's ignore the state name since ... well, you did.

    Typically, if you get TANF and you're a single parent, the state will come after the NCP for reimbursement.

    Sorry I meant to put ga. If he pays child's support does he still have to pay them back? If so can he pay weekly on it?

    Well, when he's notified he needs to contact them and arrange payments if they'll accept. But if you're not disabled, you really do need to be working yourself if feasible. It's not all on him

    In many states, if you are receiving TANF and he NCP is paying child support to the state, you don't get any of gthe child support. In some states, you may get a few dollars. Do you know how much the TANF will be for you and one child ? It isn't going to be enough to pay rent on a place of your own and still have money to live off of. You can only receive TANF for a total of 48 months in Georgia.
