Hello Readers! I am a bit more upbeat today because we are getting so very close to having all of our dossier paperwork gathered! Amos got his passport photos today and I uploaded our family photos for the dossier to Costco! They are mailing them to me! We are just waiting on a couple things to come in the mail and for our social worker to finish revising our home study! I don't think this should take too long because the bulk of it is done. Let me make this as clear as my guesses can be:
1) Gather and notarize remaining paperwork (a week or so)
2)Get home study (2-3weeks)
3)Apply (again) to CIS (2-4weeks)
4)Get dossier approved and authenticated by Hilary Clinton(2-3weeks)
5)Ship it to Ethiopia! (January?)
6)Hear back about a specific child (2-6 months)
Those are my best guesses based on the agencies paperwork but STUFF always happens.
