Hi, my DH and I are seriously considering adoption, he had a vasectomy many years ago in previous relationship and for a number of reasons we have decided not to go down the reversal route. Our LA have not been taking new applications for adopters for the past 6 months, and are going to open applications from May, with the next info meeting being held June. Given the length of time the whole process can take, we would like to attend this initial meeting and get the ball rolling so to speak. Our only hold back is our financial situation. We have around £2000 debt which we are working at decreasing and obv then save some money in order for me to give up work post adoption for a year. We have calculated that we could do this in around 10-12months, but should we do this prior to beginning the process or can we start and do this whilst going through the application stage? What would ppl advise and what would SS be expecting?? x
