RULE §700.1041What is the effective date of a permanency care assistance agreement and when will benefits begin?

(b) Permanency care assistance benefits are available beginning in the first month following the date upon which the agreement becomes effective.

(c) Under no circumstances may a permanent kinship conservator receive both foster care reimbursement and monthly permanency care assistance payments for the same time period on behalf of the same child.
