now our dossier goes to translation

Saturday, October 20, 2012

Received an email that said...
Dear Larry and Andrea Dodge,
CONGRATULATIONS! YOUR DOSSIER WAS SHIPPED TO BEIJING TODAY!

(Dossier To China)


October 19, 2012
Now we wait!


This was from our agency and explains what happens next:
 
From sending the dossier on Friday the dossier is received by our staff in China (Monday China time, Sunday our time) and logged in at the CCCWA within about two weeks of being sent to China. From there is can take an additional two weeks or so to receive a family’s login date information, as the CCCWA releases this information in batches. Generally we receive a family’s login date information from the CCCWA within two to four weeks of their dossier being sent to China.
After it is logged in it will be sent immediately for translation since your family is matched. Once translated it will be reviewed and then matched up with your little one’s child information and your Letter of Intent. From there, your family will receive your Letter of Acceptance. From a dossier being sent to China it is six months until travel. Most families receive their LOA about three months after their dossier is sent.

Now the 6 months is not exactly what I wanted to hear but it is completely out of our hands
