Stricter checks for low-income drivers seeking help

The law took effect when it became law. For a court-ordered ignition interlock device, you must give your selected provider and court clerk proof of funding eligibility. This must show that, on the order date, you qualify for or receive funds from at least one source listed in Tennessee Code § 55-10-419(h)(4). You must also authorize the state treasurer to check records with state or federal agencies. Your provider must send the required records to the treasurer; alternative-device providers must send local governments the indigency affidavit and other records the court reviewed. The treasurer can make verification agreements with state agencies, which must cooperate with legally permitted information sharing. The law does not set an assistance amount.
