We are very excited today. Our inquiry as to the status of our application from US Immigration brought the following reply:
Hello,
Your case was just assigned to me this week. I hope to have it reviewed before Monday. Please check back if you like. Thanks and have a great weekend.
If all goes well, sometime next week we will get our approval letter. Then we can get it authenticated with the Sec. of State in Wisconsin and the Chinese Consulate in Chicago. At that point, we will send it off to our agency in New York and they will send it to China for translation. Once translated, it will go to CCCWA (the Chinese government adoption division) and they will “log in” our file. As soon as it is “logged in” we will be able to submit the information to get a provisional approval. Then we will be waiting for the final approval from China. From being logged in to final approval has been taking people 35-100+ days. We hope to be on the shorter end of that range.
Please continue to pray for the approval process to move smoothly.
Yeah!!! what great news! We just received PA yesterday so it would seem we are close together in the process...would be nice to travel with another Gladney family!
