Adoption Fees & Forms

We make adoption as affordable as possible for our families. The agency application fee is $300. The Home Study fee is $1,400 for domestic adoptions and $1,550 for international or Hague Convention adoptions; if your country of adoption has additional requirements, such as an extra visit for China or extra agency documentation, there is an additional fee of $200.  The Post Placement Report fee for international adoption is $350 for one child and $400 for two children; for domestic adoption it is $325.

International adoption fees vary, country to country. The agency international adoption administration fee is $3,500 for all countries.  The case management and foreign facilitation fees vary, depending upon the country.  Estimates for third party expenses and travel costs vary with countries, as well.  These are all outlines in ICF’s adoption program guides, which you can link to and download from each program page.

We can also email the program guides along with a sample adoption agreement for international or domestic adoption.  Prospective clients of the agency are advised of their right to receive a copy of the Agency fee policy per Arizona Administrative Code R6-5-7030(B).  ICF is committed to reasonable and transparent fees.
