China Adoption

This site has a great calculator to show the waiting times based on LID. [url=http://chinaadoptionforecast.com/]China Adoption Forecast - updated 2012-01-05[/url] For Karen's LID the calculator shows a referral date of 3-24-2017!! That is a very long wait. According to the site the rule changes in 2007 have made many PAP's inelligible for adoption in China, including a new upper age limit of 50. According to one couple at my parent's church they waited 5 years for their referral only to be told that they were no longer elligible because the wife was over 50. They were told that they could switch programs to the SN or Special Focus, but they would go to the back of the line. I think it's terrible that there are some agencies telling PAP's that the current wait is around a year.
