Start collecting the paperwork right away. It took 6 months to have all of our documents ready despite me being a very organized person. We had several govt. forms come to us with a typo which made them unusable. It was a nightmare getting new corrected copies. So if you even think you might adopt start ordering birth certificates, marriage certificates, etc. NOW
