Our agency quoted an average 18 month wait, yet we were the 3rd couple in our "group" to adopt, and our son was placed with us about 8 months after we started (we had a failed match the month before, which was our first match).
We just happened to be what those particular birthmoms were looking for, so they chose us. I've talked to others in the US who are waiting for over a year. And then others who think 6 months is a long wait. It's simply amazing all the variables that come into play.
