hi,

yes process can last 8-12 weeks. Cafcass will interview you. usually its a home visit, or interview at their office. It may be just a phone call because of lockdown. report takes centre stage to your case so very important. Tell them what arrangements your seeking for kids. I sent them my position statement to get an idea of what I was seeking. They will expect you to answer to some allegations from your ex. I would recommend you complete the cafcass parenting plan from their site, and let them know at the interview. For interview keep it calm and child-focused.

Thanks for heads up. Well she accused me off alsort which where unfounded in the safeguarding checks. She accused me violent aggressive person yet allowed me to have contact. She has condricted her self all time.  One rule for her different for me.

how old are your kids? my kids were aged 2 and 5 at the time. cafcass spoke to them together and made them do drawings.

5, 4 ,3 and 18 months. To be honest a year down line after 8 years ago she wont even hold down conversation last time I seen she accused me of kidnap. Very confusing.

Your ex basically wants a child arrangements order where it states lives with mum and spends time with dad. The kidnapping is the usual nonsense because there is no court order in place . Often contact is withdrawn until a child arrangements order is sorted out.  In your case the fact you are getting some form of contact will make her accusations look stupid. The main thing you will need to concentrate on which could prove difficult is that courts like set dates and times .when will you be able to  have 4 very young children all at once  ie days and times etc/holidays.
