Blog:  “Delays in Receiving the Adoption Tax Credit—What Can You Do”

Delays in receiving the Adoption Tax Credit refund is probably the most discussed topic this week on every adoption forum or group on the internet.  Creating a Family has been inundated with complaints about delays in receiving the Federal Adoption Tax Credit refund and requests to find out what is happening.  We have attempted to do just that. I will caution that due to the fast approaching tax filing deadline, folks at the IRS are hard to reach and clear information from them is not forthcoming. I do however think we can shed some light for you on what is the current lay of the land for those who are hoping to get an Adoption Tax Credit refund this year and make suggestions if your return is being reviewed.  Please take the survey at the end of this blog regardless if you have received your adoption tax credit refund or are still waiting so that we can get a clearer picture of what is happening and share this with the adoption community.  To read more, go to http://www.creatingafamily.org/blog/
