Return of Child to the Sending State – The Receiving State may request the return

Return of Child to the Sending State – The Receiving State may request the return of a child who is in the state when a placement is denied or may withdraw its approval of a placement and request the return of a child. If return is requested: 1. The Sending State has five (5) business days to remove the child unless another timeframe is agreed upon by both state’s ICPC Offices. 2. The Sending State may propose an alternate placement if return is requested. The Receiving State must approve the alternative placement before the child can be placed in the home. The Receiving State may withdraw its request for removal if the Sending State arranges services which solve the problem.
