Smile Anyone adopted from Texas? ?'s

Hi, we were just matched with a sibling group of 3 from Texas! We are now in the information gathering stage just to make sure that this is a good match for all involved.

If anyone from PA has adopted from Texas, I'm just curious about any experiences you have had involving the process, like visiting, time frames, etc.

I'm also very curious about subsidies. The PA rate is, from what I've heard, quite a bit higher than the Texas rate. I believe some states will match the subsidy of the receiving state. Any experience with this?

Thank you,

Jen

We as well are looking at a match in Texas. I was curious how the visitation went, how long the interstate compact took generally, and if you felt it went smoothly.

We have adopted 3 kids from ND, and it went great.

Just curious,
Michelle

I am curious as to how this goes and if TX pays the $2500 fee?
