Dossier

By Carrie Craft, About.com

Definition: A set of legal documents used in international adoptions. This paperwork will include your home study, marriage license, financial statement, and health certificates - to name a few. Each country has its own set requirements for the dossier. Check with your adoption agency to see what you will need in your adoption dossier.
