Talk

I knew quite a few adoptive parents, back in the day. We may well have some mutual acquaintances. When we adopted we weren't allowed to adopt from Malaysia, which just illustrates how things change.

Yes, I know quite a few here too. I know a lady who went down this road shortly before me and whose daughter was born in Malaysia, had their first application for a British Passport declined. It was only when her husband received another posting and they needed to leave Singapore they got the application approved. I must admit I don't know any other mums here with children from Malaysia.
I would be very interested to talk to you oldnew if you by any chance have adopted a Singaporean child. DS is and I am confused re NS

Yes, I have a Singaporean son and it is an issue. Pm me your email address and I'll tell you what the Ministry told me.

Good evening,

I have just followed this thread. My wife and I are just starting to look at options for Uk expats looking to adopt. Through my searches it seems as though a lot of options are instantaneously ruled out without a uk based homestudy. Are there other options? Can someone point us in the right direction. It all seems daunting!!

Which country are you in? Rules differ depending! I can help about with your options if you are in Singapore but not much else!
