Adoption Program
Philippines
Adoption Process
Time
We anticipate client wait times of no more than two years. Expedited wait times are available for clients with Filipino heritage. Clients should expect to spend from seven to ten days in the Philippines.
Child Assignment
In some cases child assignments will be made by the agencies with which HIC works in the Philippines, and in some cases clients may select a waiting child from a list of waiting and available children. In all cases final approval and match decisions will be made by the Filipino organizations and not by HIC.
Travel
One trip to the Philippines, for an average of seven to ten days. HIC provides in-country staff and assistance to assist with the adoption. Adoptions are finalized in the U.S. after post placement monitoring of six months has been completed and submitted to the Inter-Country Adoption Board (ICAB) in the Philippines.
