Presidential Dispensation

Haiti has this crazy law that you can't adopt if you are under 30, married less than 10 years or if you have biological children. If you fall into those categories, you have to get presidential dispensation to be approved to adopt. IBESR has to approve you and then they send your file to get presidential dispensation. Once you have the dispensation, they have to publish it in their newspaper before your file continues through the process We found out in July that we were out of IBESR but waiting to receive presidential dispensation before we could move forward. After waiting almost 3 months, I decided to email for an update. I was told that we have our dispensation, but we are waiting on it to be published. Once we are published, we will move on to parquet. From what I have read, this is where we get our adoption decree. After parquet, there are still several more checkpoints before we get passports and visas. Over the last year, we have gotten really good at waiting. We wait to hit the next big milestone in the process only to have to wait some more. Please pray that we get published soon and move swiftly through the rest of the process so we can get these kiddos home!!
