712-2          LIVING WITH A CARETAKER RELATIVE

 

In most cases, the requirement of "living with" a caretaker relative is 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 3 separate questions:  

 

  1. Is the applicant a caretaker relative?  

 

  1. Can the children on whose behalf he is applying be considered to be living with him?  

 

  1. Are they living with him in his home?
