## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Child Protection & Care Proceedings](https://ailawframework.com/practice/child-protection-and-care-proceedings.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | List the placement, the permanency goal printed in the case plan, the date of the last review in the file, and the date of the last permanency hearing in the file, each with its page. Write no sentence of a motion or a proposed order. |
| What the lawyer must review | 42 U.S.C. § 675(5)(B) requires the status of each child to be reviewed no less frequently than once every six months by a court or by administrative review, in order to determine the safety of the child, the continuing necessity for and appropriateness of the placement, and the extent of compliance with the case plan. Section 675(5)(C) requires a permanency hearing no later than 12 months after the date the child is considered to have entered foster care, as determined under subparagraph (F), and not less frequently than every 12 months thereafter. Section 671(a)(15) provides that the child's health and safety are the paramount concern in determining reasonable efforts, and that reasonable efforts are made to preserve and reunify families, and to place the child timely in accordance with the permanency plan when continuing those reunification efforts is inconsistent with the plan. You read the rest of § 675(5)(B), (C) and (F) before you diarise a hearing. You write any request to change the plan. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: List the placement, the permanency goal printed in the case plan, the date of the last review in the file, and the date of the last permanency hearing in the file, each with its page. Write no sentence of a motion or a proposed order.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- Use the foster-care entry date in § 675(5)(F). Do not count 12 months from the first hotline call unless that subsection says so on the text you open.
- State law can require an earlier review. The six-month and 12-month periods are Title IV-E plan requirements.
- The motion and the proposed order are yours. This list is the dates in the file.
