Move along
Got an unexpected call today! Our licenser is busy, but luckily she has a co-worker who is going to take on our foster parent homestudy. She gave me a short to-do list of missing forms, which I completed this afternoon and will mail to her tomorrow. She is going to call us to schedule our homestudy right away.
Back to the missing forms; she needed a city, county, and state background check from WA since we lived there in the past 5 years. One thing that was great though - WA has just one central criminal history record for the entire state, so they were condensed in a single check! Our home state now keeps those 3 criminal records totally separate, so if you were an offender booked by the county, the state might not have the record of your crime and vice versa. Does this make a lick of sense, especially in this digital age? I don't get it.

Not anymore than having to be fingerprinted every year. They do know that they don't change, right? :o)
