First screen: age, BMI, and state

We check age 21-38, BMI under 35, and U.S. state before asking for contact details.

What matters first

Know the basics up front

The first screen is intentionally practical. It helps both you and our coordinators avoid wasted time when a requirement is not a fit yet.

Prior birth required

Applicants need 1-5 prior live births for the baseline program screen.

Health screen next

If the first criteria fit, we review medical history, prior pregnancy details, and clinic requirements before matching.

No pressure call

A coordinator explains what may apply to your state, timeline, family needs, and compensation questions.

Fit, pay, location

Use the first screen to answer the questions candidates ask first.

Start with fit, compensation, and location so your coordinator can give you a more useful first follow-up.

Basic fit

Start with age 21–38, prior birth history, BMI under 35, and U.S. state so the first review is useful.

Compensation range

Review a governed first-time base range of $55,000–$85,000 and the journey factors that can change the final package.

State-aware review

Your state can affect legal coordination, clinic travel, insurance review, and matching logistics. A coordinator confirms what applies before you move forward.

Compensation snapshot

Start with governed numbers, then review your specific journey.

First-time surrogates typically start above $50,000 in base compensation, with many current journeys landing around $55,000 to $85,000 before reimbursements, allowances, and qualifying add-ons.

Experienced surrogates and higher-complexity journeys may qualify for substantially higher total packages. In current qualifying scenarios, overall compensation can reach roughly $150,000, but public pages must explain that this is not the default base-compensation range.

State-aware review

Your state changes the next-step conversation.

The application asks for state early because location can affect legal review, clinic coordination, travel expectations, and matching logistics.

Start state review

Legal path

Surrogacy requirements vary by state, so legal review happens before a match is treated as ready.

Clinic and travel planning

Some applicants need different travel, appointment, childcare, or work-schedule planning based on location.

Local follow-up

The state on your application helps route the next conversation to the right coordinator review.

Quick answers

Questions before the fit check

Start with the basics so your first coordinator follow-up can focus on fit, timing, and the next real step.

How long does the first surrogate fit check take?

The first fit check usually takes about 60 to 90 seconds. It starts with basic fit, state, and compensation context before a coordinator reviews whether deeper screening makes sense.

What are the first baseline requirements?

The first screen reviews age 21–38, prior birth history, BMI under 35, U.S. location, and basic program fit before asking for deeper records or medical details.

What happens after the quick form?

If the basics line up, a coordinator reviews your state, timeline, compensation questions, medical-screening readiness, and the right next step before any matching process begins.
