Thank you. My dossier was received by my agency on April 9, 2007. So from start to finish the process was 20 months. Initially it was supposed to be only 9 months to referral. Aw, the best made plans.
Right now, Vietnam is closed, but I've talks are in the works. I've heard a major problem with negotiations will be the fact that the US wants transparent adoptions and Vietnam's government is not a fan of the transparency. I hope they are able to work a deal out so more kids can come home.
