We've been logged in at CCAA for six months! As slow as this wait seems, we are making progress!
Our lid group started out with six families, and one family has since dropped out...I am pretty sure that is the Cristoffoletti family who adopted three-year old Spencer. You can check them out here. http://www.cristofolettifamily.blogspot.com/
A few things have happened with regard to the CHI China adoptions. Wait time has grown significantly - it could be up to four years now for those who are just starting the process. We hope that wait time pertains to those who are just starting and not to those of us who are already logged in. We think that is the case, but are not positive. That is likely why there has been a huge decrease in the number of applications for Chinese adoptions - from 828 in 2006 down to 292 in 2007.
This is what is posted in the most recent China Program Newsletter:
Wait Time from Paperwork Submission to Referral: The current waiting time from paperwork receipt in China until referral is 25 months. We fully expect the wait time to grow to over 2 years in 2008 and continue to climb over time to possibly 4 years.
I am just not sure how to interpret this. I may very well mean that our wait time, even though we have been logged in for six months, could grow even as we are making progress.
