“Choose a different country” — Dawn Davenport
I urge potential adoptive parents to be extremely cautious before choosing Nepal as a country from which to adopt. Adoptions from Nepal are highly unstable now. The Nepali government has said each agency may only process 10 adoptions per year. Children that have already been referred but not adopted are not grandfathered in and must be “unreferred” and reenter the general pool of children to be assigned. The US State Department is reporting incidents of fraudulent adoptions. Proceed with caution. Better yet, don’t proceed with an adoption from Nepal. Choose a different country.
