The maximum length of time a family can collect welfare based on the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act is five years.
The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) is a federal law of the United States which introduced the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program.
The PRWORA established a block grant program and introduced important changes such as ending the view of welfare as entitlement program, condition that recipients start working after two years of receiving benefits, five year limit on availing the benefit, and restricting undocumented immigrants from accessing occupational licenses.
It also banned people convicted of drug felonies from using food stamps through the TANF.
