My kids have been in foster care for 8 months. I have done and completed everything asked of me by CPS. They kids have still not been returned. Can I request for them to be returned and move my kids with me.
I'm assuming you are in the middle of a CPS conservatorship proceeding. If you have completed all your services under your family plan of service, then ask your attorney to file for motion for return of the children or a Motion for Monitored Return. This is the part where you will have a period of time to demonstrate you have learned the parenting techniques and ability to provide a safe and protective home environment free from CPS involvement. The case will most likely close upon the Department's filing of a Motion for Nonsuit. You will also need to be sure the attorney ad litem for the children is on board with this as well.
