It is more important that the adoptive mother's age be within the guidelines than the adoptive father's. An adoptive mother, whose age is over 45 years, would be asked to provide a home for a 2-4 year old child. These guidelines are general, set by Romania and subject to change on a case by case basis. Travel to Romania is approx. 2 months after referral.
Families travel to Romania, staying approx.
2-3 days, to obtain the child's visa at the U.S. Embassy in Bucharest. Escort can be provided.
