Hmmmm....interesting. I dug out my documents and found a one pager DH and I had to sign. It states we agreed our SW would complete a HS for us. We have read it and provided the necessary documentation for the HS. We understand our SW has recommended us blah blah blah. The final line says: "The home study document can not be used for any other purpose without the written consent of our SW.
I think that may muddy the waters a bit. I think we hired our SW, we paid her and as long as she agrees we can use it for another purpose. I am not sure the same will apply if you adopted domestically and went through the Children's Aid Society. In that case they hire the SW and pay them.
