Sri Lanka Adoption

Hi there,

Welcome to my world. I am in the midst of the adoption process from Sri Lanka. I live in IL and went thru LifeLink, the adoption agency that took care of my home study. It has roughly cost me about US $ 4,500/- at this point. My paper work arrived last September in Sri Lanka and nothing has happened since then. It has been an emotional roller coaster. The Sri Lankan Authorities keep sending you from pillar to post. Unfortunately I have no way of giving you a time frame from beginning to end. The paper work here in the US took me about 4 months. I have a close friend of mine who adopted from Sri Lanka 6 years ago and it took them about 9 months to get a child into their hands. But let me tell you they had all the influence they needed.

Good luck to you, please e-mail me, if you have any further questions, I would be happy to share any information with you.
