Hi,
We are (were) adopting from Guatemala and Haiti at the same time. Our little girl came home from Guatemala in November and we are still waiting on our little Haitian boy.

A lot does depend on your agency and homestudy social worker. We are actually going through one agency for both of ours and they do not have a problem with it.

We did have to pay two USCIS fees and this is my understanding of why. When you fill out the I600A, you can only state one country on it. The approval is then forwarded to that country's US Embassy. So in order to have approval at both Embassies, you have to have one form for each.

In our case it's worked out wonderfully. Our little girl has been home from Guatemala for almost 4 months and our little guy will not be home probably until late summer or early fall (Haiti is long and we knew that going in).
