IDENTIFICATION OF RELATIVE STATUS OF PROPOSED GUARDIAN
Instructions: It is important to determine if a Proposed Guardian is a relative or a non-relative of the minor (Proposed Ward), as different agencies are responsible for conducting the guardianship investigation depending on the relationship of the parties. The Probate Investigations department completes a legal guardianship investigation on proposed relative legal guardians of children. The Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) completes a legal guardianship investigation on proposed non-relative legal guardians of children who are not dependents of the court, per Probate Code 1513 (g). Completion of this form is required for EACH Proposed Guardian for EACH Proposed Ward.
