Phase II: The Adoption Process · Dossier is sent to Ghana. · Dossier documents are prepared for court. · Child referral is given to family (anytime after you receive I-600a approval)! · Social Welfare conducts a medical and social investigation on the child to be adopted. This is when the child becomes legally (rather than informally) available for adoption. · Dossier is filed in court and court date is requested. · Court date! Either final adoption decree (usually) or 2 year interim adoption (very rarely) is ruled. · With an adoption decree, your referred child now has your last name as his/her own! Phase III: Before you can Travel · Team in Ghana applies for your child’s new birth certificate. · Team in Ghana applies for your child’s Ghanaian Passport. · Form I-600 and supporting documents are filed with the US Embassy in Ghana by a representative. · USCIS in Ghana determines whether or not a “field investigation” needs to be done in order to gain I-600 approval (this process could go as quickly as 1 week or take as long as 6 months). · I-600 approval is awarded and the Embassy invites you to travel to Ghana for the visa interview!

Ghana adoptions are conducted according to the Children’s Act of 1998 (Act 560). There are two ways an international family may adopt from Ghana—through the domestic adoption law (subsection 67), or the international adoption law (subsection 85). Under the domestic law families are expected to foster the child for at least 3 months (or provide foster care by another family) and then a final adoption decree is almost assured. In contrast, families may adopt under the international adoption law, which does not require fostering. However, families adopting through the international adoption law may, at the discretion of the judge, either be given a permanent adoption decree OR a 2 year interim adoption. The 2 year interim adoption does not seem to be a common ruling, but all adoptive parents need to be aware that the judge does have the power to grant a 2 year interim adoption (which may prohibit the child from entering the United States). General Regulations: § Couples may adopt. It seems that singles will also be allowed to adopt, at the judge’s discretion. § Minimum age of 25 to adopt, and the applicant must be at least 21 years older than the child to be adopted. § Family must be approved to adopt from their home government (approved homestudy). · No restrictions on family size, medical issues, weight, or other disabilities as long as the family is able to provide for the child to be adopted. · Children newborn to 16 year may be adopted. · Unrelated children may be adopted at the same time. · Before a child is legally free for adoption the Regional Department of Social Welfare conducts an investigation into the child’s social history. As part of this investigation all known living family members (including distant family members and sometimes the village chief) are called to a meeting where the child’s entire family must agree to the adoption plan. Note: This investigation happens AFTER a child is initially referred to a family.
