  9. Please note: We are not able to submit any new post adoption service requests between April and July*, due to the high volume of travel requests during these months at both our agency and the Korean agencies and at the request of the social service agencies in Korea. This is due to the heavy caseloads of the summer travel months when many adoptees/adoptive families and homeland tours visit their locations.

  11. *Exception: If you are planning to travel to Korea within the next three months or if you are seeking services due to an urgent medical need. If either situation applies to you and you did not already indicate this on the form you submitted, please contact [email protected].
