Hi there ladies. I have more info:

I live in Canada and according to stat's, Canadians only adopted something like 12 children from Ukraine in 2005 !! China & Russia were the two main countries of choice.

From what I have read on different websites, one reason that Ukraine halted adoptions from USA citizens, was because they had failed to give the yearly report that was required after the child/children were brought to north america.
In 2004, American's adopted 723 children from Ukraine. This Was info posted on ukraine.adoption.com

I cant find documentation of that being an issue for Canada - with good reason since just 12 families are easy to keep track of !!
Even the Ukraine Embassy in Canada ( thieir website) doesnt say anything about adoptions being stopped and you'd think that it would. I was in the adoption section of their website too.

Now I understand that the NAC is no longer going to be handling the adoption process so that is also an issue while it is sorted out but is there any one out there who has info about Canadians adopting from Ukraine ??

This is a great website with ton's of good info for anyone who is interested !!

Hopefully we can all be blessed with a Ukrainian Child once the red tape is all sorted out !!
