Depending upon your modified adjusted gross income, and a number of other factors, you may be entitled to claim an adoption tax credit on your 2011 tax return for your qualified adoption expenses. Qualified adoption expenses can include court costs, attorney fees, adoption costs, travel expenses, etc.
If you have questions about whether you may be eligible to claim an adoption tax credit for the 2011 tax year, you may want to check with the IRS here: http://www.irs.gov/formspubs/article/0,,id=235825,00.html. This link takes you to the IRS website where you can access Form 8839 (the Qualified Adoption Expenses form) and the instructions for completing Form 8839. You may also find it helpful to consult with an accountant.
