how much property do we have to give the child??

Sidhhi   27 December 2022

It's not question of giving property to adopted child but the question is if you are capable of good bringing up of child and why you didn't get married. There are NGOs extending assistance in such cases. Please find one near your location.

The Central Adoption Resource Agency (CARA) Guideline, which was released in 2015 by the Ministry of Women and Child Development, allows a single woman to adopt a child of any gender. A single male cannot legally adopt a female kid under the Juvenile Justice Act. The adopting single man must be at least 25 years old. A child under the age of four can be adopted by prospective single male and female parents up to the age of 45, while children between the ages of five and eight can be adopted by individuals up to the age of 50. Children between the ages of 9 and 18 may be adopted by someone up to the age of 55. After this age, adoption is not permitted.


 

The following steps could be part of the adoption process:

 

Parents-to-be must register online. They can do this with the District Child Protection Officer's assistance (DCPO). The application form is accessible through the CARA website.

The adoption agency creates a home study report, noting the many compliances and variables of the prospective parents, within 30 days after registration, and then uploads it on its database.

The adoptive parents can view the children's photos and medical histories so they can select a child based on their preferences.

The adoptive parents have up to 48 hours to hold a child in reserve for adoption.

The adoption agency will set up a meeting between the potential parents and the selected child and evaluate their appropriateness at the same time. Future parents must sign the child research report if the couple is compatible. There must be a social worker there to serve as a witness. If the couple is not a good fit, the process begins over. The entire matching procedure typically lasts 15 days.

please contact CARA.  They know the adoption laws better than lawyers.
