Collecting Age Information in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania law does not have a general prohibition on collecting age information from participants. However, there are specific requirements for collecting age information depending on the context. Below are some relevant sections from the Pennsylvania Code:

  • For age compliance checks in licensed premises, underage buyers may purchase or attempt to purchase liquor or malt or brewed beverages only during an age compliance check and only while under the direct supervision of a Bureau officer. [1.2]([1.2])
  • For Medical Assistance (MA) eligibility, a pregnant woman with no other children is eligible for MA in the PC category if she provides medical verification of pregnancy. Once the child is born, both mother and child would be eligible for Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC). [2.3]([2.3])
  • For Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) eligibility, assistance is intended to be made available for families who meet the established eligibility requirements as provided for in the Pennsylvania Code and who have children under 18 years of age or under 19 years of age if the child is a full-time student in secondary school or the equivalent level of a vocational or technical school and reasonably expected to complete the program before reaching age 19. [2.5]([2.5])

Based on the above information, it is clear that there are specific requirements for collecting age information in Pennsylvania depending on the context. If you have a specific context in mind, please provide more information so that I can provide a more tailored response.
