Only married couples are eligible to adopt from China. The couple should be between 30 and 50 years of age. Those people, who are thinking of fostering infants ranging from 6 months to 18 months, should be between 30 and 44 years old. And those, who are willing to foster orphans, falling in age group of 18 months to 3 years old should be 45 to 50 years old. Elderly people falling in age group of 50 to 55 are eligible of fostering children a.k.a Waiting Child Program as this country's fostering policy is mainly based on age factors. In general terms, people, who fall below 30 and are beyond 55 years of age, are not eligible for this process.
Besides the age factor, a positive health background as well as history is mandatory while fulfilling the criteria. A couple found with any kind of contagious health problems or diseases are rejected for the application process. Since these diseases are contagious, it may vehemently affect the new comer in the family. The interested couples are required to convince the agency that they have at least spent two years free of any kind of medication. Even people who have alcohol problems are not encouraged for this application. These people need to prove that they have left drinking habit since ten years, if they are serious for China adoptions. Handicap people i.e. people who are physically imperative are not so welcome for fostering. Since their lives are dependent on others, so in such cases it becomes almost impossible for them to foster an infant or a kid.
People who have decided to adopt from China should be financially stable enough to bear the expenses of their adopted children. The criterion holds that the interested applicants should have a minimum income of 80,000 dollars per annum and each partner should be capable of earning a minimum of 10,000 dollars per annum. Such kinds of rules are set up by the China adoptions in order to assure that the child is given in safe hands and his/her future is secured.
