Yes, you should qualify for the Adoption Credit (Form 8839) if you meet all the requirements. Expenses for domestic adoptions in a year prior to the adoption becoming final may qualify for a portion of the credit for that child. Keep receipts for all qualified adoption expenses with your records.

See the post below for more information, including where to enter this information.
