ODJFS is distributing a one-time, TANF High Performance Bonus Incentive to counties for SFY 2005 in the amount of $28,115,197. This bonus incentive is covered by the fiscal agreement and bound by state and federal TANF funding restrictions. Expenditure of these funds in no way entitles counties to future incentives. The FFY 04 TANF High Performance Bonus Incentive allocation has a liquidation period ending September 30, 2006, pursuant to 45 CFR 92.3 and sections 404(e) and 409(a)(1) of the Social Security Act. Any future TANF High Performance Bonus Incentives will be referred to by the Federal Fiscal Year in which ODJFS receives the grant award.
This incentive is for TANF non-assistance funding only. To make improvements that will earn future incentives, ODJFS recommends investing this bonus in PRC services. Expenditures will be reported on the JFS 02827 using the following codes:

Information regarding the TANF bonus incentive is outlined in new Administrative Code Rule 5101:9-8-03. Please note that this rule previously went through clearance under CCN # 5364. However, in response to comments received, amendments were made to the original policy in an effort to expand reporting categories to include all of those currently used for existing TANF allocations. Therefore, the rule is being placed back on clearance.
Financial technical assistance related to this rule is available through your Fiscal Supervisor. Any questions related to program implementation should be directed to the Office Of Family Stability at 466-4815.
