Tax Credit: Is it only for Special Needs

Okay... my spouse and I are looking to adopt an infant that is not special needs (although this may change as we discover more about what that means).

He is a bit disbelieving of me on a the information I have collected and I'm beginning to wonder if I'm right or not.

Q's:

1) Is the adoption tax credit only for special needs adoptions?

2) This may be for someone who lives in AZ but maybe some other states have similar guidelines for adoptions. If we go through a private adoption agency can the state come in and charge a fee. We were looking at the booklet our state puts out for adoptions and it states there that if you adopt a child not special needs that they will charge you and I'm thinking that this only applies to state adoptions and not private adoptions (am I making sense?)

Thanks for your help in advance!
