Time to finalize varies between states, some take longer, some shorter. Unless your child is born in one of the few states (Texas is one) that allows non-residents to finalize there, you will finalize following the laws of the state in which you are legal residents.
It took us 6 months to finalize, as this is what the law required - three visits with a social worker, not less than thirty days apart, over the course of 6 months. SW Report along with petition for adoption filed.
