You could be matched with intended parents within 1-6 months. This means you get to start earning your surrogate compensation sooner while making dreams come true.
Our wait times are shorter than the industry average, which can extend to 12 months or more with some agencies.
Here’s how we keep wait times low:
Thorough Pre-Screening
Every intended parent and surrogate undergoes a rigorous pre-screening process. This ensures compatibility and eliminates unnecessary delays.
You can be confident that you’re working with committed and prepared intended parents.
“American Surrogacy really took the time to really be like ‘This couple would be a great match for this person’ You’re matching on things where all of you have to align. Because this is a long journey, you should very intentional on who it is that you match with.” – Jade, one of our surrogate mothers.

Why Does the Matching Timeline Vary?
While the typical wait time is 1-6 months, individual timelines may vary based on factors such as:
- Surrogate Preferences: If you have specific requirements for the intended parents, such as working with a same-sex couple or single parent, your wait time may be slightly longer to find the perfect match.
- Geographic Location: Matches often depend on location compatibility for logistical reasons, such as medical visits and travel.
- Agency Demand: During times of high demand for surrogates, your match may happen faster.
By understanding these factors, you can set realistic expectations while still benefiting from American Surrogacy’s industry-leading wait times.
How to Find Intended Parents
After you have met our surrogate requirements and undergone our preliminary screening, we can get to work locating the right match for you.
Our matching process includes the following steps:
- Clinic Approval: If intended parents select your profile, we send your medical records to their fertility clinic for review. This can take 1-2 weeks.
- Profile Review: Once you’ve been approved, the clinic will send you the intended parents’ profile to review.
- Zoom Call: If you like the family, we will set up a Zoom call so you can get to know each other.
- Accept the Match: If you and the intended parents determine you’d like to move forward together, the match will be finalized.
- Screening: Your specialist will notify the clinic of the match and the clinic will contact you to set up a screening appointment.After 7-10 business days, the clinic will let you and your specialist know that they approve you as a carrier.
