That will all depend on the circumstances surrounding your child's removal as well as family dynamics. In some situations it is approved, yet in others denied.

You modified your post after you received an answer.

Again, it will depend on circumstances that the child was taken. They will have to be interviewed and it may depend on what contact they have with you.

CPS prefers to put children with family members, but 21 is quite young.

The native american part could have an influence. In some cases native americans are exempt from local civil law and subject only to tribal law. That could influence CPS. But as J_9 said, there are too many factors to give a definitive answer. I can say that most CPS agencies prefer to place a child with family.

Scott, that is true only if they live on tribal land, i.e. Reservation.

I thought so, but wasn't sure. We don't know if that's where the son lives.

All parties would need to live on tribal land for tribal law to be enforced. It appears the OP does not live on tribal land since CPS is involved. Therefore, they are subject to civil law.

Yes, and the whole tribe receives l0,000 a month, divided through how many living on the reservation at any one time. So he may get, what, not even a 1000 a month supplement or even less. So you cant bring money into the mix as well. And they own their own home, on a reservation which isn't much of anything really.Sorry, I know how it works for our natives in Canada.
