We are so excited to announce another major milestone in our adoption! We received I800 approval today. This form is a petition to classify the adoptee (Noah) as an immediate relative. Our form was accepted by the United States Immigration Department and now goes to the Consolate in Hong Kong for final approval, which should come in 2-4 weeks, called Article 5. This will be the last major hurdle before we receive High Court Order and travel dates. I'll explain all that as we move forward in the next few months.
I was a little discouraged last week when we thought our process was going on the back burner for a couple weeks until Jake gets fingerprinted after his birthday. Everyone who is 18 or older in the house has to be fingerprinted and have a background check. Jake will make the 4th one in the house to have this done. Thankfully, the Lord has other plans, and it seems that our adoption is still right on time! My projected date of travel is the week of March 12, 2013! I will be very excited to see how close we actually get to that date :) Thank you for continuing to pray for us! Please keep it up :)
