Homestudy Complete and I800A on the way to USCIS

I haven't posted in awhile because I have been a little frustrated with how long the homestudy process was taking.  Thank goodness it is done now.  We had 4 very valuable copies in our hands today.  We are down to two because one went to USCIS(United States Citizenship and Imigration Services) and one is going out tomorrow to our placing agency in California.  One copy needs to be certified and authenicated for our dossier and one is ours to keep.  Our homestudy is about 16 pages long. I never thought Dallas and I were that interesting.

Unfortunately it will most likely be around 60 days before we get approval from USCIS.  Praying for things to speed up but we know it will all happen in God's time.  We should get a notice in a couple of weeks informing of us the date we are to be fingerprinted. This will be our third time being fingerprinted for this adoption.  Kristopher got to join in on the fun this time around because he is over 18.

My best guest for travel is April 2012.  It would be nice to travel during the Spring this time.

Now it is time to get our dossier completed so all we will be waiting on is our USCIS approval. Hoping to be LID by the beginning of December. LID means China has our paperwork and it is all logged in.
