Legal Question in Family Law in Maine

Re: emancipation

I unfortunately do not know the answer to your question but can tell you how to get the information. You should contact the Department of Health and Human Services and ask for the adoption unit. Explain you have a question pertaining to benefits you receive as an adopted child and ask if they have any information pertaining to the difference of benefits should you be emancipated. I do know that some of the benefits will require that you remain in school. There are also some restrictions around who can be emancipated or not. You may want to look into the restrictions as well. I hope this information is helpful.
