Woman I met (lives in Ontario) adopted 2 children. The youngest she adopted in 2013. Biological father was killed in traffic accident. Mother is not around (drug addict who stated in documentation that daughter deceased... how strange). Both children have Native background. The young daughter was born on a reserve in Manitoba but father was registered to a reserve in Brantford Ontario?
She has never received any government tax credit (baby bonus) for either child.
She does not have money to hire a lawyer (I don't believe she should have to hire one anyhow).
How would you recommend she proceed? Obviously there was some sort of disconnect between the Native bands.
The second child she is POA for and he is now 19 and mentally disabled. She receives some form of government assistance for this child. She indicated she never received child tax credit for this one either.
Any advice will be appreciated.
