Ranbeaux - due to the US Hague stuff right now, it is almost impossible for US citizens to adopt from SA. Does your DH have dual citizenship?

I know of a Canadian couple living in the US who are adopting from SA - but with a Canadian agency.

I'm sorry - this probably wasn't want you wanted to hear, but I had a friend adopt from there and it took her about 3 years to complete her adoption. And that was before SA signed the Hague, so now it is even harder.

PM me if I can help in any way!
