IF you can find an agency who is willing to let you adopt two unrelated children at one time, my understanding is that you have to pay 2 country fees. Several agencies I have spoken to will decrease the 2nd agency fee....but really the only thing you are going to be saving money on is the travel expenses.

I have had a VERY hard time finding an angency who will place 2 unrelated children at the same time. If you are single it's almost impossible. BUT do not let them lie to you! LOTS of agency have their own little rules and agendas and they will tell you that something is against Country policy, when it is just against THEIR policy. I've had several agencies tell me that VN has a ratio on singles like China has...LIE! I've also had several agencies tell me that VN doesn't allow the adoption of 2 unrelated children...LIE! There are a couple of agencies out there who will...I'm still trying to find one that will allow a single woman though.

Best of Luck!!
