Answer:

E. They will receive several tax deductions

Step-by-step explanation:

Certain "reasonable and necessary" adoption related expenses are quantifiable for tax deductions, such as:

  • Court costs
  • Attorney's fees
  • Traveling expenses related to the adoption
  • Certain other costs directly related to the adoption process
