It's been awhile since we've posted any news here. The reason is that there hasn't been much news to post! Our home study was completed over a month ago. The home study is done by the Adoption Agency's agent, and she then submits a copy to Immigration Services. The home study should have been completed and submitted to Immigration about a month ago, but that did not happen. We believe it has been submitted in the past week, so things should start moving again soon!
Once Immigration Services gets the copy, they give us an appointment to get fingerprinted (again). Once fingerprinting is completed, we wait again for Immigration Services to approve us. And finally, once that is done, we will drive to Sacramento with four copies of our dossier, which will receive the State Seal. It is at that point that the dossier gets sent to China, gets translated, and we get put in the queue. At that point the wait time will be 6 months, which we understand is a fairly reliable estimate.
So, that's a brief update of how things are going. We will keep you posted as things progress.
