5120-3        LIVING WITH A CARETAKER RELATIVE

 

The requirement of living with a FM caretaker relative is in most cases simply a matter of demonstrating that the child or children being applied for actually live in the same residence as the caretaker relative.

 

Determining if an applicant and children meet the requirement of living in the home of a caretaker relative actually involves answering three separate questions:

 

  1. Is the applicant a caretaker relative?
     

  2. Can the child on whose behalf the application was made be considered to be living with the caretaker relative?
     

  3. Is the child living with the caretaker relative in the caretaker relative’s home?
