Hi. I'm single (and in the Ft. Lauderdale area), and I adopted from Guatemala with no problem. There are a few special features that have to be included in your homestudy and dossier. But in many ways, having only one set of paperwork can actually make things easier. In addition, you don't have to worry about pushing another person to stay on task with the paperwork.
Having said that, from time to time, new laws are proposed that could threaten single adoptions, but none have ever made it past the introductory stages so far.
Good luck with your adoption!
