My husband and I did a background check all over the world, our lawyer said this will take time. My question is on the average how long should it take?

  1. What do you mean "all over the world"?  If you are doing a US adoption (whether domestic or international) the background check is done within the US records system and shouldn't take more than a week to ten days.


  2. I am not sure that you really understand what a background check is....let me explain.  In regards to getting a Home Study, you need to get fingerprinted.  (In IL I had to do prints with the State and Feds).  These prints are sent off to check if you have a criminal history I NYOUR STATE AND YOUR COUNTRY ONLY!.  Most everything will show up if you have a past criminal activities.  These can take UP TO 8 weeks or in my case it took a very short 2 weeks.  I am unaware of US background checks being conducted for the entire world in order to be licensed in US.  However, as you have mentioned it, it my not be such a bad idea!
