Adoption Process
International Adoption is a very complicated and at the same time is a very rewarding process. Thousands and thousands families adopt every year from overseas. Orphans Adoption is proud to be part of this exciting process and making some ground braking changes in the way it’s done. Our agency solely focuses on the family and its needs rather then simply on the paperwork alone like many other agencies do. We stay close to our families through the whole process of international adoption from start to very end. From your fist phone call or email to Orphans Adoption you will be working with a live person and will be able to talk on the phone with a live person whenever you needed in order to resolve any obstacles or confusions (we are not supporting automated phone services, and if you call us during business hours there always be a live person answering your phone on the other side with the greeting from Orphans Adoption).

What Happens During a Homestudy?

During a homestudy, you will meet with your social worker several times. A homestudy usually includes separate interviews for you and your spouse in the social worker’s office. At least one meeting with the social worker happens in your home – the dreaded home visit. The home visit gives the social worker a chance to see where your child will be living. (It’s important to remember that everyone living in your home will be interviewed for your home study.)»read more
