Homestudy. . .done

We got an email yesterday that our homestudy has gone through the final review process with our agency. We have a green light! No more revisions need to be made.

Now we wait to get the final hard copy in the mail. I am thinking it will be mailed today or Monday. So we should certainly get it next week. I have the USCIS paperwork all filled out and ready to mail with our near $900 check.

We are told that USCIS is taking about 45 days. As soon as it comes back our dossier should be done. We only have a handful of things left to prepare and they are all pretty easy. We already have all the time consuming things done (basically the medical and all the blood work). Now we just have to fill out some forms and have them notarized.

If it is taking 45 days, our Dossier should be complete around the first of May. Then off to get authenticated and then finally, off to China. Once our dossier is in China and we get a Log In Date (LID) then we can be matched with our daughter. I really feel like we'll get a match by the end of the year.

This is really good news. It only took about a month to finish our homestudy (after all the time we put in last summer.) I am happy with our timeline so far. This is a great big thing to check off the list
