Adoption Assistance | Intact Insurance Specialty Solutions Benefits

Adoption and Surrogacy Assistance

Intact's adoption and surrogacy assistance benefits are available to all full-time employees who have completed at least one year of service with the company. You can be reimbursed up to the IRS limit ($16,810 in 2024) annually per household for expenses associated with the adoption of a child or hiring a surrogate– including agency fees, surrogate fees, legal fees, transportation and lodging expenses, immigration and translation fees, legal fees and court costs.

A form to claim reimbursement for adoption or surrogacy expenses can be obtained from the Human Resources Service Center (HRSC) or downloaded from the Intact Portal. As a reminder, you would also be eligible for a leave of absence of up to 12 weeks under the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) for the adoption of a child.

The Employee Assistance Program offers helpful counseling with the process, discounted legal services, and dependent-care referrals.

This material is intended as a general description of certain types of insurance coverages and services. Coverages and availability vary by state; exclusions and deductibles may apply. Please refer to your insurance policy or consult with your independent insurance advisor for information about coverages, terms and conditions. Some coverage may be written by a surplus lines insurer through a licensed surplus lines broker. Surplus lines insurers do not generally participate in state guaranty funds and insureds are therefore not protected by such funds.
