In the fall of 2024, the Arizona Department of Child Safety (DCS) mailed letters to parents who once had an open dependency and/or severance case.

When am I supposed to file the affidavit of default?
You can file for default if the other person has not responded within 20 days of being served, or 30 days if they were served outside of Arizona.
