Alberta > Adoption Records in Alberta:

I filed a disclosure veto but I’m not sure how I feel about being contacted by my biological child. Can I change my mind?

Yes, it is possible to withdraw the disclosure veto at any time if you change your mind. A veto is also no longer in effect once the person filing the veto is deceased. When a birth parent or adoptee files a disclosure veto, they may also file a written or a medical statement that can be released to the other party should he or she contact the Registry looking for information.
