Any alien sponsored by a public or private agency or organization shall be ineligible for general relief for a period of three years following entry unless the sponsored alien can provide documentation that the sponsor no longer exists or is unable to meet the alien's needs.

If a sponsored alien has been found ineligible for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families or Supplemental Security Income due to sponsorship, eligibility for general relief does not exist.
