The international adoption process can be difficult to navigate especially when you also have to deal with applying for immigration benefits. This guide provides some basics about the process.

BUSTED! Both international and domestic adoption typically range from $15,000 to $50,000, but each has their own unique costs. The cost of foreign adoption entirely depends on the country you are adopting from. It's true that there are additional costs such as a visa for your child, travel expenses for you and/or your spouse, and travel expenses to return back to the US with your child to consider. It is also true that domestic adoption has costs too, such as a home study, legal fees, and travel costs if adopting from another state. One of the first steps in your adoption journey may be to choose domestic vs. international adoption. To help, here are some of the factors to look at when deciding: cost, requirements, wait times, medical information, and laws. When adopting, decide which type of adoption is best for your family and your situation. Each family is different. The most crucial step is to START your adoption journey when adoption is your family plan. Need guidance and resources to START? We're here to help!
