We're matched with a p-bmom in Michigan, we live in Indiana. The bf can sign before the baby is born. The bmom will sign papers giving us temporary custody so we can take the baby from the hospital. We've been told that 7-10 days after that will be the TPR hearing (that's the projected timeframe for Oakland county, it can be longer elsewhere). In Michigan the mother has to go before the court for TPR, she can't just sign papers. After TPR it should take about 2-3 days for Michigan to complete the ICPC paperwork and send it to Indiana, then 2-3 days for Indiana to complete their portion. Once that's complete we can leave the state. So all total it's a 2-3 week stay. Fortunately I have family in the area so we're going to stay with them rather than having to live in a hotel for 3 weeks. Then a six month period before finalization.
