Foster Care Inquiry Form

The Foster Care inquiry tool is a good resource for Child Support Specialist to determine placement/custody time frames.

To find foster care payments:

1. Open the InfoNet Home Page, and Select Job Functions > Oklahoma Child Support Services>Finance & Budget
2. Under General Information > Foster Care Inquiry

If searching using Find CaseIDs by Child DOB and Name, the spreadsheet lists only the KK cases with which payments are associated.

To begin a search, enter the child’s date of birth and name as shown below (the year must be four digits). Click Submit and it pulls up the report with the KK case or cases. This shows all KK numbers with which the child is associated.

This screen provides the KK numbers needed to complete the next part of the search.

Once the associated KK numbers have been identified, return to the menu by selecting the Internet Explorer taskbar button at the bottom of the screen. The Excel page remains open.

Now select Return to Menu.

Select Claim Details by Child DOB and CaseIDs.

Enter all the KK numbers to view for this deprived action. (Some kids have more than one KK number due to being previously involved with OKDHS.)

To pull up all payments associated with all children involved in the deprived action, enter KK number(s) and use Service Month for your Primary Sort selection. This pulls up all payments for all children associated with this case.

To pull up all payments associated with a specific child, enter the birthdate of the child, the KK number(s), and use Name for your Primary Sort selection.
