A case plan must be prepared on all cases but need not be submitted to court if:

When a child is expected to be in temporary foster care for no longer than 30 days, a case plan is not required to be submitted to court. In the case of option B, a case plan is still necessary to outline the steps needed for the parents to regain custody of the child. Option C is incorrect because the parents' signatures are not a determining factor in whether a case plan should be submitted to court. Option D is also incorrect because concurrent goals are an integral part of a case plan and are required to be identified and submitted for the court's review.
