Except as otherwise provided herein, the department shall charge a prospective adoptive
parent adopting a child pursuant to Chapter 3 of Part 2 of Division 13 of the Family
Code, Sections 8800 et seq., fees as follows: (A) for petitions filed from March 5,
1993, through June 30, 1993, a maximum of $500.00 before the filing of a favorable
report in court, and (B) for petitions filed on or after July 1, 1993, a maximum of
$1,250.
The department may defer, waive, or reduce the fee when in its judgment the payment
would cause economic hardship to the prospective adoptive parents and would be detrimental
to the welfare of the child.
