Speaker. all of us have had constituents who have adopted children internationally. These families go through a long. complex and very emotional process as they wait on legal decisions and government reviews. Along with the emotional stress can come financial stress too. In a number of cases. as wait times lengthen and lengthen. an adoptive childs American visa will expire before they are able to leave their home country. This means the American parents adopting this child have to reapply and repay hefty fees. But under this legislation. that reapplication fee can be waived if a family is faced with extraordinary circumstances outside their control.
