what does ADC stand for?
In my state the govt will pay if child support was ordered, but then the state will go after the father, and if he doesn’t pay can be held in contempt and jailed with a purge bond.
ADC means Aid to Dependent Children.
If could be the father is broke, dead, out of state, unemployed, contesting paternity, etc.
Does not really matter why, but the main and almost only welfare the federal government pays out is ADC.
The second would be for the disabled.
And again, BOTH these come from social security surplus funds, so are NOT paid by other taxes like income tax.
They come out of the FICA withholdings for social security.
