Ukraine shut down adoptions (except for children older then 10, sibling of a child you adopted previously, handicapped children) for all countries until the “missing” post adoption reports were filed.
Well, good news for several countries. Families from Germany, Spain and Canada who adopted from Ukraine have filed all the post adoption reports. Adoption is open for citizens of these countries.
And France is not far behind. They are short about 30 reports.
It seems US adoptive parents owe about 900 reports.
Getting 100 % of post adoption reports in the US is going to be so difficult. I have heard stories already about a US family refusing to file the annual report. They are worried about providing some of the “private” information the report asks for. After all they don’t know who really sees the information.
