Post-Adoption Reports

Post-adoption reports are crucial for demonstrating compliance with agency and country requirements, ensuring the child's well-being, and maintaining transparency in the adoption process.

What Are Post-Adoption Reports?

Post-adoption reports are updates completed by your home study social worker to ensure the child is thriving. These reports include:

• 10 photos with captions
• Details about the child's health and well-being
• Information on how the family is adjusting

When Are Post-Adoption Reports Due?

For adoptions from the Dominican Republic, reports should be submitted at the following intervals:

• 1 month
• 6 months
• 12 months (1 year)
• 24 months (2 years)
• 36 months (3 years)
• 48 months (4 years)

Submission Guidelines

The 30-day report is due immediately after returning home. Post-adoption reports must be detailed and specific to the child, providing reassurance to the Dominican Republic's adoption authority about the child's progress.
