While we don't have any formal news just yet about our travel dates we did hear from our contact in Vietnam that we will be in the next group traveling. There are 12 families waiting for their G&R dates, of which 7 will be assigned any day. We have been confirmed that we are one of the 7, so we will be in the next group.
Things sure have slowed down in Vietnam since we joined the program. We are now hearing of waits up to 24 months for a referral. And because there is such an influx of people wanting to adopt from Vietnam I think all of the government offices there are being bogged down. It has been three months since our referral and when we received the referral we were told we would travel in 2 to 3 months. We are already well behind that scenario. Now the agency is telling new families 4 to 6 months. The timeframes for everything in Vietnam are just stretching.
We just want to go, get our girls, and bring them home. While I am tired of the stretching timeframes I am also acutely aware that we have been quite lucky with our timing so far.
Hope to write more soon.
Love Tina
