He was stood down in February of last year when allegations first emerged, and then again at the end of March.
The 23-year-old returned to training with the VFL program in mid-April under directive from club specialists.
North Melbourne senior officials told 9News Melbourne that they are also investigating the allegations, with the club releasing a short statement on Wednesday night.
“North Melbourne received notification from the AFL Integrity Unit on Wednesday that Tarryn Thomas is under investigation following a new allegation of inappropriate behaviour,” the statement read.
“The club is working through this information and is not in a position to make any further comment.”
Thomas played 12 games last season.
