Hi, Does anyone know if it is a longer wait for a girl then a boy in Panama, and if so how much longer is the wait?? One agency told me it takes 3 months longer to get a girl. I was wondering what your agencies are telling you. Thanks in advance for any responses.

I don't think any agency at this point can commit to referral times in Panama. We are working with Commonwealth and our translated dossier was turned into the Panama Ministry of Adoption on July 11th. We were told to expect 1-3 month wait. The first couple that has adopted through Commonwealth received their referral immediately, but they were not invited to travel for almost 3 months.
There are currently only 2 complete dossiers in Panama at this time through Commonwealth. I don't believe any other agency has dossiers in country. The first couple made their first trip in May and should be going back to Panama in August to finalize their adoptions. It appears that Panama will probably require two trips.
I'll keep you posted on the process as we receive our referral.
