Fee refunds • Generally, all application, CCI agency, home study and post placement fees paid to CCI are non-refundable; however, in some circumstance may be applied to future international adoptions with CCI. • There may be extenuating situations in which CCI may consider a partial refund of unused fees.  • Adoption fees are not refundable in the event a family chooses to discontinue an adoption outside of the above timeframe or if CCI terminates the adoption for breach of contract. Definitions Application Fee: A non-refundable application fee must accompany the Application for Adoption. CCI Agency Fee: Upon application approval, a CCI Agency fee must accompany the International Adoption Services Agreement.  Orphanage Donation: May be required for some country programs, this fee may be a tax deductible contribution.  The Humanitarian Aid Donation does not count towards the Federal Adoption Credit.    In-Country Fee: The country fee is set by the facilitating organizations in each country.  The fee includes background investigation and identification of child, social services, accepting legal responsibility for the child, work with government and agency authorities, legal fees, child care, medical expenses, and, in some countries, passport and US visa fee’s (refer to individual country fee schedules) in the child’s country.  A portion of this fee must accompany dossier to country for processing.  Home study Fee: The home study is a comprehensive study and written report that is necessary prior to all agency adoptions.  The home study must be completed by CCI home study provider, or by an approved cooperating agency in the adoptive parent(s) state of residence.  Dossier Related Fees: The dossier is a collection of documents that, along with your home study, will represent you and your family in the country where you choose to adopt.  These fees include those involved with document collection, notarization, state authentication/ verification, foreign country authentication and translation, and postage, overnight and courier fees.  Travel: Travel fees include parent(s) U.S. passport, foreign country entry visas, airfare, hotels, meals, supplies, sightseeing, souvenirs, taxis, and similar costs.   These fees vary according to country, length of time in country, season, and accommodations, and the costs are the responsibility of the parent(s). Post Placement Fee: This fee is for services after child placement and return home, for a minimum 6 month period.  Supervisory visits, by an agency Social Worker, are required by certain countries at certain intervals.  It is important to note that some countries require ongoing reports and photographs that can be prepared by the families themselves.  Compliance with this requirement is essential to continuing favorable adoption relations with foreign countries. Country Change Fee: In the event that the families chosen country closes adoptions, the family may choose to wait for the country to re-open or choose another country. If the new chosen country remains with the same program manager there will be no country change fee. If the family voluntarily decides to change another country program and the change necessitates a change in program managers, there will be a country change fee as specified by CCI at that time. Each country change fee is done on a case by case basis.    Fee Reductions: CCI strives to encourage a loving family for ALL children and will consider fee reductions for children with special needs, older children, and large sibling groups.  Each child and family will be considered on an individual basis. CCI’s promise to our client families is to provide the highest quality services to them, and children and families in need, while charging reasonable fees for the services we provide.
