Essential Updates on the 2025 Adoption Tax Credit

The adoption tax credit serves as a financial support tool for adoptive families, helping to mitigate the substantial costs that accompany the adoption process. For the year 2025, the maximum credit allowable for qualified adoption expenses is set at $17,280 per adoption, not per tax return. An exciting update for this year is the introduction of a refundable portion of the credit, which allows up to $5,000 to be refunded in cash. This enhancement is especially beneficial as it enables families to receive a portion of the credit even if it exceeds their total tax obligation.
