Yes
No
b. A copy of the irrevocable consent(s) signed by the legal custodian(s) identified in Item 6, and any other
Yes
No
individual or entity who must consent to the child's adoption (or, if the law of the country of the child's
habitual residence provides that their identities may not be disclosed, the Central Authority's
certification that the required documents exist and that they establish the child's age and availability for
adoption).
c. A statement, signed under penalty of perjury by the primary provider (or an authorized representative if
Yes
No
the primary provider is an agency or other juridical person), certifying that the report is a true, correct,

13. The Article 16 report or child's background information includes evidence/verification of one of the following as it relates to the
child you intend to adopt and the child's legal custodian: (You must select one box unless one or both of the report(s) are not yet
available and you responded "Yes" to both Item 10 and Item 11.)
a.
If the legal custodian is an individual or entity other than the child’s birth parents, the legal basis of custody and the
circumstances leading to the grant of custody.
b.
If the legal custodians are both the child’s birth parents, the factual basis for concluding that they are incapable of providing
proper care.
c.
If the legal custodian is the child’s surviving birth parent, proof of the other birth parent’s death.
If the legal custodian is one of the child’s birth parents, verification of the circumstances leading to the competent
d.

child’s life.
NOTE: A copy of any irrevocable consent signed by the legal custodian(s) and any other individual or entity that must consent to
the child's adoption must be submitted with the petition unless the law of the country of the child's habitual residence provides that
their identities may not be disclosed. In that case, the Central Authority's certification that the required documents exist and they
establish the child's age and availability for adoption must be submitted.
14. Does the child's background information include a statement concerning whether, from any examination
Yes
No
(as described in 22 CFR Part 96.49(e)) or for any other reason, there is reason to believe that the child

(NOTE: This is not limited to medical inadmissibility, but may be for any ground of inadmissibility
that may apply to the child and for which a waiver is available. If you do not file the waiver
application with Form I-800, you may have to file it later in order for the child to be able to
immigrate.)
