Single Parent
Welcome to Adoption Australia. The following is a little more information on what is involved in the adoption process.
If you are single, you may still be able to adopt in Australia. There are often restrictions which may require you to put in a great deal of effort into your application to ensure it has the best chance of success. The criteria varies from state to state.
If you are thinking about adoption in Australia, then we can provide with detailed information on the adoption process in your state, as well as the eligibility criteria of your local state adoption department. We also provide information on inter-overseas adoption. Along with this information, we additionally share details on the eligibility criteria from other countries, and information on international law and and the affects these laws have on inter-country adoptions. We offer information on which countries are open to adoptions by Australian families, information on estimated costs and fees, and contact details for agencies, support groups, and non-governmental organisations. We also offer information about what other options you may have and information pertaining to single parents or gay and lesbian couples wanting to adopt.
