2015 House Bill 4022 ↩

Senate Roll Call 502: Passed

To require foster care caseworkers to annually request credit reports on each foster care child they are assigned aged 14 to 17, and if the report suggests the presence of fraudulent activity in the child's name, report this to the court at the next 90-day review of the child’s foster care plan. The individual appointed by the court to guard the child’s legal interest (guardian ad litem) would then be required to contact the credit reporting agency immediately and request they remove the fraudulent activity from the report. The caseworker also would be required to discuss these matters with the child.
