Who can apply

Attorney-General's Department does not publish a structured list of eligible applicant types for this program, so this page does not show one. The eligibility criteria in the guidelines on the official page are the ones that count.

What International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme funds

The International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme (ICARS) may provide funding to an individual who is responding to a 1980 Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction application seeking the return of a child under the Family Law (Child Abduction Convention) Regulations 1986 (the Regulations) in an Australian court.

That description is Attorney-General's Department's own wording, reproduced from the official listing under CC BY 4.0 (Australian Government default open licence). Our plain-English summaries are being written program by program and this one has not been done yet.

How to apply

Applications are made through

Attorney-General's Department

Not through GrantWindow. We do not take applications, charge a fee or act as an intermediary, and any site that offers to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look. The direct link to Attorney-General's Department's own application page is one of the two facts a trial opens, alongside the exact closing date.

About International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme

Answered from this program's own record, and re-read against the funder's page every night.

Something else? hello@grantwindow.com.au

When does International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme close?

Attorney-General's Department accepts applications on an ongoing basis and publishes no closing date. Ongoing rounds do get paused and closed without much notice, so this listing is re-read every night and the alert list is told the day it changes.

How much funding is available through International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme?

Attorney-General's Department does not publish a funding amount for this program, so this page does not show one. The figure, where there is one, is in the guidelines Attorney-General's Department publishes on their own page, which this record names and carries the link to.

Who can apply for International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme?

Attorney-General's Department does not publish a structured list of eligible applicant types. The eligibility criteria Attorney-General's Department publishes in their own guidelines are the ones that count, and this record carries the link to them.

Is International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme still open?

It was ongoing intake when we last read Attorney-General's Department's own page, on 24 Oct 2026. Every source is re-read nightly and this page carries the date of the last read.

Who runs International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme, and does GrantWindow take a cut?

International Child Abduction Respondents Scheme is offered by Attorney-General's Department in Commonwealth of Australia. Applications are made through the funder, never through GrantWindow: we take no applications, charge no fee and act as no intermediary. Any site offering to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look.
