International Adoption is a very complicated and at
the same time is a very rewarding process. Thousands and thousands
families adopt every year from overseas. Orphans Adoption is proud
to be part of this exciting process and making some ground braking
changes in the way it’s done. Our agency solely focuses on the
family and its needs rather then simply on the paperwork alone like
many other agencies do. We stay close to our families through the
whole process of international adoption from start to very end.
From your fist phone call or email to Orphans Adoption you will be
working with a live person and will be able to talk on the phone
with a live person whenever you needed in order to resolve any
obstacles or confusions (we are not supporting automated phone
services, and if you call us during business hours there always be
a live person answering your phone on the other side with the
greeting from Orphans Adoption).

A 5-year waiting period to finalize has been a strong deterrent for foreign
residents wishing to adopt a Greek child. Children of other heritages are
available for adoption. Greek children may be adopted only by Greek nationals or
of Greek origin and residents in Greece, unless special needs. Children
available range from infant to older children. In 2000 (last year reported),
U.S. citizens adopted 4 children from Greece.
Travel required: If married, at least one parent must travel and that parent must be U.S. citizen
Singles accepted: Yes, must be U.S. citizen
Other: International Social Services (ISS) in Athens must perform the homestudy, and an in-country attorney must be used. Preference given to those of the Greek Orthodox faith

When the USCIS approves your I-600A, they will send you form I-171H, “Notice of Favorable Determination Concerning Application for Advance Processing of an Orphan Petition.” You should also request that notice of this approval be sent to the U.S. embassy or consulate in the country from which you plan to adopt. In a nutshell, the I-171H states that you are approved to adopt a child from the foreign country you specified way back when you completed your I-600A. »read more
