The Department of Healthcare and Family Services shall consider grants of financial aid to children who are eligible under Article V of this Code at least annually and shall take into account those reports filed, or required to be filed, pursuant to Sections 11-18 and 11-19. After such investigation as may be necessary, the amount and manner of giving aid may be changed or the aid may be entirely withdrawn if the County Department, local governmental unit, or Illinois Department finds that the recipient's circumstances have altered sufficiently to warrant such action. Financial aid may at any time be canceled or revoked for cause or suspended for such period as may be proper.

This subsection (b) does not apply to sanctions imposed for the failure of any recipient to participate as required in the child support enforcement program or in any educational, training, or employment program under this Code or any other sanction under Section 4-21, nor does this subsection (b) apply to any cancellation, revocation, reduction, termination, or sanction imposed for the failure of any recipient to cooperate in the monthly reporting process or the quarterly reporting process.
