Adoption Tax Credit Updates:

Great News on Changes to the Adoption Tax Credit! 

There’s exciting news for adoptive families! Congress has approved a new policy making the federal Adoption Tax Credit partially refundable — which means more families can benefit, even if their tax bill is small.

Starting with the 2025 tax year, eligible families can receive up to $5,000 as a refundable credit, helping cover important adoption expenses like court costs, attorney and agency fees, as well as post-adoption needs such as medical care and support services.

The total maximum Adoption Tax Credit for 2025 is $17,280 per child in qualified expenses.

Learn more through the National Council for Adoption and see how this change could help your family!
