Bill > HB4128

This bill makes a technical correction to Arizona law regarding nonrecurring adoption expenses by clarifying a date reference. Specifically, it amends section 8-162 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which outlines a program for the department to pay for nonrecurring adoption expenses, meaning costs directly related to the adoption process that do not recur. The bill changes the phrase "the effective date of this article" to a specific date, "september 27, 1990," in two places. This clarifies the timeframe for when certain adoption expenses could be reimbursed after the finalization of an adoption, particularly for adoptions finalized between January 1, 1987, and September 27, 1990, and sets a deadline of December 14, 1990, for filing applications related to those adoptions.
