For the year 2010, the maximum adoption tax credit will be $12,170. The IRS updated this figure as part of their annual update for several inflation-indexed figures as released in Revenue Procedure 2009-50.
The adoption credit is scheduled to sunset at the end of the year 2010, and revert back to its pre-2001 dollar limit of $5,000, or $6,000 if a special needs child is adopted.
We will keep you posted on what actions can be taken to see that the tax credit does not sunset.

Great information. Keep us posted.
Hello, I have been a blog follower of yours for a long time. My husband and I have five children, 3 bio, one adopted from US foster care, and one still in Haiti. I am in Haiti now and he has been cleared to leave and we are having some major trouble. It will probably make news headlines. Could you please e-mail me so I can tell you how to specifically pray and then you can spread the word around? I would really appreciate it!
Thank you,
Sarah
