- China Adoption with Love, Inc. was established in 1995 in response to the increasing need for adoption services from China. We are accredited by the Council on Accreditation (COA). We are a licensed child placement agency in Massachusetts, a 501(c)(3) federal nonprofit organization and fully registered with the China Center of Adoption Affairs. We are also now licensed in Florida, Maine, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire! This means that we are able to conduct home studies and post adoption services only in those states, however, WE ARE ABLE TO PLACE IN ALL 50 STATES!

- 1. Attend individual Orientation/Informational Meeting 2. Apply to CAWLI with completed application. CAWLI will then email you our Intake Package. 3.

Apply to the USCIS with a completed I-800A form and supporting documents. A completed, original home study shall also be included. 5. About 4 weeks after the USCIS receives your application and home study, you will receive a letter asking you to come in for fingerprinting. Everyone over the age of 18 in your home must go. During this time, have your documents notarized, certified by the states where they are issued and authenticated by the Chinese Consulate Office that serves your state. 6.
