I talked to a very nice woman in Kiev who might be able to submit our dossier. The problem is, the virtual line to submit the dossiers is about 200 people, and SDA (State Department of Adoptions) accepts only about 8-9 dossiers a week from american citizens. It means that by the time we get to the beginning of the line, all our documents will expire and we'll have to re-do all paperwork again :( I'm still hoping my girlfriend (and Raisa's guardian) in Odessa will be able to come up with the faster (though more expensive) solution.

Hi there. Our names are Oleg and Nataliya, we were born in Odessa, Ukraine and immigrated to upstate NY in 1996. We are high school sweethearts and have been married for 21 years. We have 2 wonderful bio kids - 20-year old son Alex and a 6-year old daughter Victoria. We started our international adoption journey in September 2006, and in January 2008 we finally brought home our 10 (now 11)-year daughter Rachel from our hometown Odessa in Ukraine.

Олег и Наталия,
Вы получили юридически некорректную консультацию от "женщины из Киева":
1.Приостановка Госдепартаментом по делам усыновлений приема досье противозаконна в целом, и грамотный юрист может это препятствие преодолеть;
2.В Вашем случае это может быть сделано относительно быстро, поскольку нарушено право ребенка быть усыновленным вообще, и в частности- родственником.
Родственники сироты обладают первоочередным правом на его усыновление. В нашей практике такие случаи были, мы их успешно решали, и с интересом взялись бы за Ваше дело.

The SDA dessision to stop (to limit) submission of the dossiers is illegal. Especially in case of prospective parrents are relative to orphan; you have the preference to adopt the niece. The experienced lawyer will overcome this difficulties.
For more details please email us info@adoption.net.ua
