Amends the Public Assistance Fraud Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code. Makes it a Class C misdemeanor for any person, including an individual, firm, corporation, association, partnership, or joint venture, or any employee or agent of any of those, to assist another person in completing or submitting an application for benefits under the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or the State's Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program in exchange for a portion of the applicant's SNAP or TANF benefits or cash from any other source. Provides that an applicant who receives such assistance is not in violation of the prohibition. Provides that nothing in this provision shall be construed as prohibiting an applicant from using the services of a non-profit organization, a licensed attorney, or any other authorized organization or agency that receives State or federal funding to assist persons in the preparation of an application for SNAP or TANF benefits or in appealing a denial of an application for SNAP or TANF benefits. Effective immediately.
