How often must one reapply for out-of-home care in Florida?

  1. Every 6 months

  2. Annually

  3. Every 2 years

  4. Once at the beginning

The correct answer is: Every 6 months

Out-of-home care in Florida must be reapplied for every 6 months. This is due to the fact that the child's situation and the caregiver's ability to provide may change within a shorter period of time compared to annual or biennial intervals. Option B and C are incorrect because waiting for a year or two could possibly put the child at risk in an unsuitable living environment for that period of time. Option D is incorrect because the initial application is not sufficient for long-term care monitoring and updates on the child's well-being. Therefore, reapplying every 6 months is necessary to ensure that the child is receiving adequate care.
