Affidavit Of Diligent Efforts To Locate Parent Legal Custodian {CHP-602}

CHP602 - AFFIDAVIT OF DILIGENT EFFORTS TO LOCATE PARENT/LEGAL CUSTODIAN. This form is used in juvenile court proceedings in the State of Minnesota when a parent or legal custodian of a child involved in a child protection case cannot be located. It is completed by a social worker or someone working under their direction, who outlines all reasonable efforts made to find the missing parent or custodian. These efforts may include searching various government and public records such as social services databases (SSIS/CSIS), economic assistance records (MAXIS), child support and collections databases, correctional records, online searches, and contact with known relatives. The affidavit documents each step taken and confirms that attempts to reach or serve the parent/custodian at their last known address have failed. After all these steps, if the individual still cannot be found, the social worker requests the court’s permission to serve them by publication. www.FormsWorkflow.com
