(a) The Department may deny the certified family's request if the Department has decided to revoke the certificate.

(b) When the Department accepts the certified family's request, the Department must notify the certified family of its decision to accept the voluntary termination and notify the certified family of the date the certification termination.

(2) When a child or young adult in the care or custody of the Department placed in the home leaves a home that has a Child-Specific Certificate of Approval or Temporary Certificate of Approval, the certificate terminates 60 calendar days after the departure of the child or young adult, unless at least one of the following applies:

(a) The certified family submits a written request to change the type of certificate under OAR 413-200-0289(5) or (6) within 60 calendar days of the departure of the child or young adult from the home.

(b) The certified family requests to voluntarily terminate the Temporary Certificate of Approval or Child-Specific Certificate of Approval, and the Department agrees to terminate the certificate.

(c) The Department determines the child or young adult is removed because the certified family cannot meet the safety, health, or well-being needs of the child or young adult and has violated one or more rules under OAR 413-200-0301 to 413-200-0396.

(d) OAR 413-200-0296(6) applies.

(4) When a certified family moves to a different residence, the Department must terminate the certificate. The Department may issue a new certificate when the activities described in OAR 413-200-0292(6) have been completed.
