How to seek reimbursement

Your adoption expenses for 1 child must be submitted in ONE consolidated claim. 

  1. Submit your claim within 60 days of legal adoption date to the India Payroll Team with these documents:
    • Adoption proof, such as a provisional certificate or adoption deed
    • Invoices for all eligible expenses showing the amount you paid (reimbursement amount will be based on the maximum of INR 1,00,000 per child adoption)
  2. Your claim will be processed for payment in the upcoming payroll cycle (payroll cutoff is the 10th of every month).

Please note: Adoption assistance reimbursement will be grossed up for income tax.
