Advice for de facto couple looking to adopt
10 years ago
Hi,
We are an Australian couple living in Singapore looking to adopt, and fulfil the Australian Government's criteria for adoption.
We are hoping to do a private intercountry adoption, but have also started the HSR process to be eligible to adopt in Singapore too.
As we are a de facto couple (not married, but together for 8+ years), we are finding it hard to get information on countries that allow de factos to adopt.
We know there is the possibility for one of us to adopt as a single parent, but would like to avoid this.
Does anyone know of any countries that are accepting of unmarried couples? Have any Australian couples out there recently adopted that can shed light on this?
I've had a good look through the forums, but can't find any appropriate info.
Many thanks in advance for your help!
