How to apply for 503 business status

I am looking to open an adoption agency in Georgia, completing adoptions from Guatemala only. We adopted from Guatemala and have lived there. I have all of the connections that I need, but don't know where to start applying for 503 (non-profit) status and a liscense to open a small agency.

Re: How to apply for 503 business status

While I don't have specific knowledge of adoption licenses, I handle business start-ups, including non-profits. I would guess that you would need a license from the state as well as possibly from the county/city in order to operate the business. That should be relatively easy to obtain.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
