Support House (HR 2476) and Senate (S 937) the Adoption Credit Refundability Act of 2017


Support House (HR 2476) and Senate (S 937) the Adoption Credit Refundability Act of 2017
The Issue
Help make Adoption Affordable
The average cost to adopt a child is any where from $25k- $35k or more. Currently, for the 2017 the Tax Credit is:
• A maximum of $13,570 for 2017 returns only
The 2017 Tax Credit is not refundable for adoptions, which means a large number of families may not be able to get any of the $25k- $35k back and possibly prevent people from adopting a child at all.
We are petitioning to make the adoption tax credit permanent and refundable, so that more money is available to families allowing them provide a financially stable home to the adopted child.
Currently, there are two bills HR 2476 and S 937 that this petition is supporting.
