What Is The Adoption Process In Georgia?
The adoption process in Georgia involves several steps. First, you must meet the eligibility requirements and submit an adoption petition. The state then conducts a home study and background checks. If necessary, the rights of the biological parents must be terminated. Lastly, a court reviews all the documentation and grants the adoption if everything is correct.
