Paid their fees; $1000 bonus at end of year and 2 more weeks of vacation at end for their “travel month”.

About how much is their fees? So they get 4 weeks off in the 2nd year? And did you mentioned that before they decided to extend or after?


We offered it after.

We also have not extended with some APs who wanted to stay -- but they did a good job so we still flew them home and gave them time off before they started their second year with another family.
Fees are under $500. Big thing is they lose travel month and cannot leave country in second year.

We gave her the savings from the agency and extra 10 days off that she used to go home.

No boyfriend and a few sweet friends in the area but most are going home in July. She's a great fit for our family and we all really have enjoyed the year so far.

I extended with 2 and paid the fee. I left the stipend the same but upped the gifts by a LOT...not as an incentive, but as appreciation.
