How long does it take to adopt from the US?

0

If you want to adopt through foster care, you can expect a wait of anywhere from 2 months to 2 years, again, depending on your specifics. For example, if you only want a white child under 2 years old, expect that your wait will be far longer. If you are fine with adopting a bi-racial, black, hispanic child who is 2+, then there are many more children who will be considered for placement….and you wait time would be on the shorter side. Most of your wait time is agency delay. For instance, once we completed all of our forms and background checks, it took 3 months for our child to be placed….BUT, the paperwork and background checks and homestudy took about 9 months to complete.
