For families in Florida who rely on the Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA) program, it’s important to know the specific dates when you will receive your benefits in July 2025.
This resource is essential to help manage your budget and ensure timely access to the support you need.
What is TCA?
The Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA) program provides monthly financial assistance to eligible families, including families with minor children (up to 18 years of age or 19 if still in high school), pregnant women in specific circumstances, or permanent caregivers of children in legal custody.
Basic Requirements to Be a TCA Beneficiary in Florida
To qualify for TCA benefits, applicants must meet the following criteria:
- Be a Florida resident and have a Social Security number (or apply for one).
- Meet asset and income limits (185% of the federal poverty level).
- Participate in school or work programs as applicable.
- For relative caregivers, ensure the child remains in the home and meets school attendance requirements.
How Does the TCA Florida Payment Schedule Work?
TCA payments are distributed via an EBT card between the 1st and 28th of each month. The exact date of your payment depends on the last two digits of your case number, which helps stagger the distribution throughout the month.
