PI Intake That Involves a Child in DFPS Conservatorship

If the incident involves a child in DFPS conservatorship and supports a Provider Investigations (PI) intake, the intake specialist completes both of the following:

• A PI (Facility or Community) intake.
• An I&R CVS Caseworker Notification.

When completing a PI intake, the intake specialist does not complete an I&R to Existing CPS Case unless one of the following applies:

• There is an open CPS case that does not include a SUB stage. (This may occur if the child is involved in more than one open CPI or CPS case.)
• The situation falls under 4561.1 Situations That Require an I&R to Existing CPS Case.

Incident That Is Not an Intake But Involves a Child in DFPS Conservatorship

If the incident involves a child in DFPS conservatorship but does not support an intake, the intake specialist completes one of the following:

• An I&R to Existing PI Case (Facility or Community), which appears in IMPACT as an I&R to Existing APS-PI Case, if relevant to the case.
• An I&R AFC Client Rights/Fac Admn Issues if PI Facility has jurisdiction and there is not an existing PI Facility case.
• An I&R Referred to HHSC if PI Community has jurisdiction and there is not an existing PI Community case.

When completing an I&R to Existing PI Case, an I&R AFC Client Rights/Fac Admn Issues, or an I&R Referred to HHSC, the intake specialist does not complete an I&R to Existing CPS Case unless the situation falls under 4561.1 Situations That Require an I&R to Existing CPS Case.
