Does anyone have any advice experience with this agency either good or bad. Please pm me.

We are currently working with Adoption Ark and waiting on our LOI. EDITED TO REMOVE AGENCY DISCUSSION.

I have been researching the same agency. REMOVED AGENCY DISCUSSION. Are you adopting a specific child or going into it open? I really want to persue this, I'm just so afraid of fraud, getting there and being presented with a completely different situation.

Please PM me if anyone out there has worked with Adoption Ark. I'm researching agencies for Nepal, Mongolian and/or Kaz adoption. I want to make sure I get a reputable agency.

Many thanks!

I am sorry to have to tell you, but Nepal has just closed to international adoption. Here is the statement from the U.S. State Department website:

May 14, 2007


The Nepali Ministry of Women, Children and Social Welfare (MWCS) has informed the U.S. Embassy in Kathmandu that the Government of Nepal has suspended all intercountry adoptions pending approval of reforms of the adoption process by the Nepali cabinet. The Nepali Government has given no indication about when the suspension will be lifted.

The U.S. Embassy is working with the Government of Nepal to urge that they continue to process cases of American adoptive parents already matched with orphans to prevent undue delays of adoption cases already in process.

Please go to the State Department website over the next several weeks, to see whether there is any further news.

Meanwhile, be cautious about dealing with any agencies that don't immediately tell you of this development.
