If you need to ask how much money you will get paid then you cant afford to be a foster parent. You will need to spend every dime on the child plus more. Shame on anyone that would do this for the money. Shame shame shame. The kids have already been abused enough then you have people that want to take advantage of them.
You don't get paid a salary, just expenses for the child and the rate changes depending on the child's age:
(Daily rates) 0 - 5: $11.50, 5 - 12: $13.00, 13 + : $14.00
Foster parents in Florida receive $429 dollars per child per month. This payment is to help cover costs of the child.
Best to go through the FL child support agency or FL district attorney - the State has an interest in this matter.
If you want to see your girlfriend and you get permission from her foster parent then yes of course you can see her you just need the parents permission and her foster parent is her parent.

If this is by court order, the Foster Parent could be held in contempt and lose their certification.
You must apply to become a foster parent. Then take a Foster parent study. Next you must get approved to foster kids. After all this you can finally foster a child. wish you the best of luck! ALSO, Here is a good site for more information! http://www.adoptuskids.org/for-families/how-to-foster
No. The court should not rule that a foster parent be held responsible to transport foster children to visit a natural parent. The duties of the foster parent are governed by a contract between the foster parent and the state. When the court places extra duties and expenses on a foster parent without arranging for payment for time and expenses, the court is placing an undue burden on a particular person. Such is not the duty of the court. The court does not run the foster care program. The Administrative branch of government is assigned that responsibility. The court should not place an unfunded mandate on foster parents.
No, they have to be financially able to support themselves and the child though.
You can become a foster parent if you don't have a criminal record. You can not have an abusive environment for the child to come into.
No
