We were like Leisa - when the register opened last time, I don't think it was advertised, so when we heard about it on the internet through the IAFQ site, we had two weeks to get our application in before it closed. <BR/><BR/>Sad, really as there are so many beuatiful children in this world who need families...Blondiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08726153633438333682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36015535.post-49839522111450504762007-07-08T21:16:00.000+10:002007-07-08T21:16:00.000+10:00Even here in South Oz, we can apply whenever we li...Even here in South Oz, we can apply whenever we like. It really annoys me how we all live in the same country, yet all states have different legislation! Single folks, can't adopt from here. Can you be single and adopt in QLD (when the jolly register is actually open?!!)<BR/><BR/>Hopefully it won't be too long before it re-opens.OziMumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09813480734366566560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36015535.post-72017110664741268892007-07-05T23:47:00.000+10:002007-07-05T23:47:00.000+10:00Wow - that is very different than the U.S. I hope ...Wow - that is very different than the U.S. I hope it opens again soon for those interested in adopting.Briana's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160431869695128577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36015535.post-2128104255074096322007-07-05T23:44:00.000+10:002007-07-05T23:44:00.000+10:00That sounds frustrating!

That 8 week opening created such a rush that we didn't get invited to education until a year later and we weren't the last ones on the list. No wonder adoptions can take up to 6 years here. We can't control what happens in our country of choice but we should have more of a voice in what happens here!<BR/>See you at International Day?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36015535.post-50420706755766849692007-07-05T12:21:00.000+10:002007-07-05T12:21:00.000+10:00It's very interesting how things are so different ...It's very interesting how things are so different in every country.
