,
23or the Wisconsin works agency granting such a benefit, may sue the parent on behalf
24of the department to recover the value of that portion of the aid
or of the benefit which
25does not exceed the amount of the property so acquired. The value of
the aid
or
1benefit liable for recovery under this section may not include the value of work
2performed by a member of the family in a community work experience program
3under s. 46.215 (1) (o), 1991 stats., s. 46.22 (1) (b) 11., 1991 stats., or s. 49.50 (7j) (d),

, in a
5community service job under s. 49.147 (4) or in a transitional placement under s.
649.147 (5). During the life of the parent, the 10-year statute of limitations may be
7pleaded in defense against any suit for recovery under this section; and if such
8property is his or her homestead it shall be exempt from execution on the judgment
9of recovery until his or her death or sale of the property, whichever occurs first.
10Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions and limitations, where the aid
or benefit 11recipient is deceased a claim may be filed against any property in his or her estate
12and the statute of limitations specified in s. 859.02 shall be exclusively applicable.
13The court may refuse to render judgment or allow the claim in any case where a
14parent, spouse or child is dependent on the property for support, and the court in
15rendering judgment shall take into account the current family budget requirement
16as fixed by the U.S. department of labor for the community or as fixed by the
17authorities of the community in charge of public assistance. The records of aid
or
18benefits paid kept by the county
or, by the department
or by the Wisconsin works
19agency are prima facie evidence of the value of the aid
or benefits furnished. Liability
20under this section shall extend to any parent or stepparent whose family receives aid
21under s. 49.19
or benefits under s. 49.147 (4) or (5), 49.155 or 49.157 during the period
22that he or she is a member of the same household, but his or her liability is limited
23to such period. This section does not apply to medical and health assistance
24payments for which recovery is prohibited or restricted by federal law or regulation.
