What Resource Family Questionnaire is
Resource Family Questionnaire is an applicant-information and acknowledgment document used in resource-family approval workflows. It gathers the household’s required responses, disclosures, and signatures so an agency or placement provider can review one organized record. With signNow, a coordinator uploads the questionnaire, checks auto-detected fillable fields, assigns applicant and reviewer fields, sends the document, and receives a completed copy with an audit trail. Electronic signing may be governed by the federal ESIGN Act, 15 U.S.C. chapter 96, and applicable state law, including UETA or New York ESRA.
Who uses Resource Family Questionnaire
Child-welfare agencies
Public child-welfare agencies use the questionnaire to collect prospective resource-family information, household details, disclosures, and signatures before licensing review.
Placement providers
Foster-care nonprofits and placement providers use it for applicant intake, acknowledgment tracking, reviewer handoffs, and secure retention of completed records.
Organizations that use resource family questionnaires
Resource Family Questionnaire supports agencies and providers collecting structured applicant information, acknowledgments, and signatures during resource-family approval workflows.
County child-welfare agencies can collect household details, placement information, and required acknowledgments from prospective resource families through one controlled questionnaire workflow. Licensed foster-care providers can send the questionnaire to applicants, track completed sections, and preserve signed records for internal review without rekeying responses. Large nonprofit networks can standardize the questionnaire in shared templates while assigning completion and review tasks to regional offices under administrator-managed permissions.
These tasks are executed by both individual contributors and centralized administrators depending on organizational policy and required controls.

On signNow’s Business plan, upload the questionnaire, use the editor to place or verify fields, and assign each field to the correct applicant or reviewer. If auto-detection misses a field, add it manually before sending and complete a test recipient review.
The Business plan is listed at $8/user/month with annual billing. It includes templates and audit trails. Business Premium is listed at $15/user/month annually and adds bulk send, which may help when the same questionnaire goes to many applicants.
signNow states that HIPAA compliance requires a business associate agreement. If the questionnaire contains protected health information, obtain the required BAA and configure access controls before sending it through the workflow.
For consumer-facing electronic records, ESIGN requires disclosure of the right to paper records, access to the electronic format, and procedures for withdrawing consent under 15 U.S.C. §7001(c). Address those requirements before electronic completion.
A Resource Family Questionnaire signature can be evaluated under ESIGN and applicable state law when intent, consent, attribution, and record retention are demonstrated. ESIGN is in 15 U.S.C. chapter 96; UETA generally governs intrastate transactions in adopting jurisdictions.
If a reviewer cannot open the completed file, verify signNow permissions, the recipient’s email address, and the organization’s storage connection. Export the signed questionnaire and audit trail from signNow, then preserve both in approved agency storage.
