Future Timeline

November 2007 - Restart homestudy process. A homestudy or adoption study is where parents who want to adopt meet with a social worker. It involves lots of homework and paperwork. This is the part of the process where parents-to-be get the OK to move forward with the adoption. It takes 1-4 months COMPLETE

May 19th 2009 - Three year marriage requirement met for Korea program. Homestudy submitted and the journey begins. COMPLETE

Nov 09/Feb 2010 - Receive referral for from Korea. (If the timing stays as it is currently - about 6-9 months). A referral is where the parents-to-be are matched with a child. WAITING

May 2010/August 2010 - Travel to Korea is 4-6 months after a referral is received. We hope to stop at Tokyo for a day or two to visit the city and get our body adjusted to the timezone, before we travel to Korea for 5 days to bring home our child.
