Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963, the Civil No Contact Order Act, and the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986. Provides that whenever a domestic violence order of protection or civil no contact order is issued by a court, the court shall issue to the petitioner a temporary certificate of economic hardship that shall be accepted as proof of petitioner's income eligibility for any benefit or assistance provided under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children, legal aid, or any other State or local assistance program. Provides that the certificate of economic hardship shall be valid for a period of time set by the court and may, upon petition, be extended if, in the discretion of the court, circumstances warrant. Requires all State agencies and local governmental entities that administer a public benefit or assistance program funded with federal monies to apply for all federal waivers or approvals necessary to implement temporary certificates of economic hardship as proof of income eligibility. Provides that implementation of the amendatory Act is contingent on the receipt of all necessary federal waivers or approvals.
