ADOPTEES: HOW TO GET STARTED ON YOUR CALIFORNIA SEARCH:


***Non-identifying information***
Information can be requested from the adoption file by contacting the adoption agency that handled the adoption. The non-identifying report will have most or all of the following about the birth family:

A. Ages of birth parents at the time of relinquishment
B. Marital status
C. Other siblings born before the adoptee
D. Physical description
E. Ethnicity
F. Occupation
G. Education
H. Information about aunts, uncles and grandparents
I. Reason for relinquishment

***Waiver for Consent to Contact Form***
The Waiver is a form that can be used by adoptees, relinquished siblings or birthparents to give their permission for contact should a waiver be filed by both
parties.
