- Adoption Process
- 1. Choose A Placing Agency: Not all agencies are equal. Not all approaches are the same. 2. Choose a Country Program: Aim to have at least one program in mind when you apply to Holt. 3. Apply: Complete Holt’s application online or return a printed application by mail. 4. Homestudy: During this 2-4 month process, you will explore issues related to being an adoptive family, in-depth, with your social worker. 5. Prepare the Dossier: “Dossier†is a formal term for a collection of documents prepared in a specific way. 6. Apply for USCIS Approval: You must obtain permission from the U.S. government to bring a child into the United States from another country as an immediate member of your family. 7. Wait and Prepare: The waiting time for a referral varies by country. 8. Your Child Referral: A full-disclosure agency, Holt strives to deliver accurate and thorough information about your child. 9. Meeting your child: Once legal steps are complete, Holt will help coordinate arrangements to meet your child. 10. Post Placement: Upon your return home, your social worker will visit your family. 11. Finalize or Re-finalize your Child’s Adoption: Several months after your child is home, Holt will issue consent for you to finalize your child’s adoption in the United States. 12. Stay Involved with Holt: Adoption is a lifelong journey.
