[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe there is an issue with tips not being followed up on (as discussed earlier in this thread) as well as with the investigations conducted into the tips.  I know of someone who was investigated for residency fraud and cleared the appeals process in spite of having very poor documentation.  In that case, it was not a false address provided but rather an informal custody grant (ie, a letter saying that child needed to stay with grandparents for a period due to financial instability of the parents).  I was floored that the case was dropped.  I mention this to point out two things:  (1) tips don't help if the follow-up process is flawed or deficient, and (2) it is not always residency fraud but sometimes false custody arrangements.[/quote]

And what's the issue with a child staying with their grandparents when they need to? I don't understand the kind of mean-spirited person who seems to think that a case like this is fraud. I know more than a few families like that all over Shepherd Park. Are those kids not entitled to go to Shepherd?[/quote]
