Understanding Adoption Requirements

The adoption process can be a complicated one, but it’s honorable to want to adopt a child. You may even want to adopt a stepdaughter or stepson, which can be simpler than adopting a newborn baby or foster child. The basic requirements for adoption in Oklahoma include:

  • You must be at least 21 years old.
  • You must be in good health.
  • You must have space for an additional child.
  • You must have the financial means to provide for an additional child.
  • You must be capable of loving and nurturing a child.
  • Both you and your spouse, if you have one, must participate in a home assessment and attend an orientation session.

The home assessment for adoption goes into much more detail regarding verification of your income, your home situation, your background and more. Your family law attorney can help you through this process and ensure everything goes as smoothly as possible as you try to grow your family.
