Caregiver Moves Within Texas

If a child and a caregiver in an interstate placement move to another county in Texas during the supervisory period of an Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC) case and the other state does not notify the Texas Interstate Compact Office (TICO), the caseworker supervising the placement sends written notice of the move to TICO and the new region’s regional ICPC coordinator.

TICO must obtain a new Placement Request (100A) and Form 2261 Compact Report ICPC (100B) from the other state and enters the data into the ICPC case in IMPACT.

The supervisor reassigns the ICPC case to a caseworker in the new area.

TICO must print out and sign the Placement Request (100A) and send it to the other state, either as an approved or not approved placement.

Caregiver Moves Outside of Texas

If a child and a caregiver move to another state, or return to the other state, the caseworker sends TICO written notice of the move and closes the case in IMPACT.
