What is the name of your state?OH
I was wondering if anyone could help guide me a little bit. My husband and I are in the first stages of looking into adopting an "older" child. (anywhere from 2 to 12) We have not yet completed a home study. We are getting the information on children and exactly what we need to do. There are a few things though that I'm curious about that I'm afraid might not allow us to continue. My husband and I live off of a trust...we are not rich by any means, but we are comfortable right now. My husband does do consulting work throughout the year but it's only hear and there. I know that you have to provide income statements. The other thing is is that I never graduated high school. I do have state license's for appraisals and for a mortgage loan broker, which I keep valid though I am not currently working. Will these be issues in the backround check? Also, We don't have a huge house (3 bedroom 1 bath), but do have an extra bedroom. We have a 10 year old son. If anyone could help I give my thanks.
