I am an enrolled member of the Meskwaki Nation, a federally recognized tribe in Tama Iowa and have been trying to get my children back in my care who have been removed from me 2 years back and still am fighting to get them back. MFS(Meskwaki Family Services) are trying to move forward with permanency or guardianship of my 5 kids and to be placed with their family members. I have done almost everything they required expect drop random ua's due to my busy schedule. The allegations were I was living out of my car with my kids and was under the influence of methamphetamine which are inaccurate but I have no proof to uphold my argument in court.

The first question is there a child in need of assistance case open? Also, you need to be sure to drop the random ua's since that will help your position with MSF. Are you having visits with your children?

Are you talking about a UCC lien? See 810 ILCS 5/9-501 et seq. for some information about fraudulent filings. The Secretary of State also has a form for an Affidavit of Fraudulent Record which you could file. Additionally, you could file a termination which is also available with the Secretary of State.

The FAA wants court and police records of my incidents as well as a personal statement, in order to obtain my first class medical to start flight school. In college, I was charged with underage consumption which was dismissed and then a DWAI which was also dismissed. My BAC of the DWAI was .025 but I was 20 years old at the time. I don't want to put myself into a hole on the personal statement. Both these incidents happened in Colorado.

Honesty and proactive admission of potential errors is a major concern in aviation. Did you know that anyone involved in an actual or potential incident should file a report to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) using a program called the Aviation Safety Reporting Program (ASRP)? In this safe-harbor, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is prohibited from using these "NASA Reports" for enforcement purposes. While it is natural to ignore mistakes, a safe pilot is an honest pilot. Hidden problems end careers and take lives.
