On average they are saying 6-8 months..this is because our agency puts us on the wait list without having our FDL. We are going for our fingerprints this coming saturday so hopefully it won't take long for the FDL. We also received word that our dossier is back from authentication and is being sent to Ethiopia sometime this week. Baby furniture is ordered..mother in law knows which car seat to buy..now we just need to move up that list. Probable won't move far if at all in the next two months.
