can a foster-adoption home study be transferred to another state?

The reason I mentioned working through the old state was that was basically what we ended up doing when we moved from California to Colorado. We were on a waiting list for a child for 2 years, and told them we might be moving before we made a match. LA county at the time said that if we moved, since we were approved with them, they would keep us on the waiting list and when we matched they would make the placement through ICPC. As it turned out, our youngest was placed 3 months before we moved, so we still had to get the ICPC in place to take her with us. It was a pain, but it happened. We didn't finalize until she was 18 months old, in part because of the extra paperwork.
