The purpose of this Informational Letter (INF) is to provide supplemental guidance to local departments of social services (LDSS) and voluntary authorized agencies regarding documentation requirements applicable to foster homes located in other states in which children in the care and custody or the custody and guardianship of an LDSS are placed. At issue is the documentation of the licensure status of the foster home located in another tate for the purpose of complying with Title IV-E eligibility requirements. This release complements the informational letter (07-OCFS-INF-06) issued by the Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) on July 25, 2007, addressing issues identified in the 2006 federal Title IV-E Eligibility Review.
