Generally, married couples between the age

| |
(Combined married parents' ages can be

| |
resident. |
| |
|
|
No adoptive parent can be over 55 years of age. |

Married couples may have a maximum of 5 children in the family; but this is dependent |
| |
on the home study and financial ability of the adoptive parents to care for the children. |
| |
|
|
Families may choose the sex of the child they wish to adopt (however, this may extend |
| |
your wait for a referral). |
| |
|
|
Single persons (never married, widowed, divorced) between the ages 30-45 years can |
| |
adopt. |
| |

When twins and siblings are available, they are always placed together. |

India will not allow the adoption of a child by a gay or lesbian person. |
