"paperwork"

July 24, 2014~4:00 p.m.

We received our application for adoption today. I'll have to go over it with Tim tonight and see what he thinks. For JoAnna that asked, here is how the fees are split up...

pre-application fee=$25

Home assessment fee=$1,250

Web Site fee-$300

Pre-placement fee=$1,000

Placement fees (based on gross income of family)

<$50,000 =$7,500

$50,000 to $75,000 =$9,375

$75,000 to $100,000 =$13,125

>$100,000 =$15,000

So that about sums it up. The placement fees go towards operating expenses, phones, pagers, salaries, legal fees (lawyers), court, filing coss,some medical expenses and foster care for baby, birth mother services, etc. So I hope that answers it for those that wonder. And believe me, I wonder too.

So we have some reading up to do tonight and praying and talking. I still think I'll check into a couple of other places. But this may be a reality that could happen for us!
