A family member is in jail, her 2 boys removed from custody and living with grandfather until alternative situation can be found. She is pregnant with baby #3 and I have informed CPS that I would like custody of the baby.
CPS indicated baby could be placed as soon as born in January but the hearing/trial would not be until March 2013. During that time, Jan-Mar, if the baby is placed with me, what is that considered? Fostering? PMC?
Was asked by CPS to become licensed foster care parent -- how does that affect PMC? Does it affect it?
So many questions -- I need a good flowchart or diagram, lol

I'm not sure what PMC is, but some states will pay you the foster care rate for caring for the child if you complete the requirements for foster parent. Also, if it were to come to adoption of the child that would take care of some of those requirements. You should also be eligible for relative caregiver compensation once the child is "adjudicated". Have you considered taking the other children as well since from your posts it seems they are looking for placement for them?
