Home Study Approvals

Our homestudy was completed back in March (March 8th to be exact)  On that day it was sent to our agency in CO to be approved.  Our social worker thought it would take about a week.  Fast forward 4 weeks to April 8th and we received notice that our homestudy was approved.  On that same day it was sent to DCFS for approval as well.  This process was to take 2 to 3 weeks and "yay for us" it was approved in 1 week!!  Adam and I completed all the paperwork involved to file our I800A with Immigration and overnighted it today.  This next step could take 6 to 10 weeks.  During this time we will be given an appointment to get our fingerprints taken.  Once we receive approval from them we get to take ALL the paperwork to get notorized, certified and authenticated and then our dossier will be ready to send to our agency and then to CHINA!!!   We are coming sweet Emme, a step closer each day!!
