I-800A Approval


We finally received our I-800A approval notice in the mail today. We had a slight hiccup that delayed us about a week. We received an RFE (request for evidence) regarding some of the wording in our home study. Thankfully, our social worker is fabulous and took care of it right away.

This is the last document we need to get our dossier certified and authenticated. I plan to have it all on the way to the consulate in Houston on Wednesday. My goal has been to be DTC by the time school starts on the 23rd...we'll see if that happens!!

We're one step closer on our journey to finding our sweet Sophia. We may not know who she is yet, but God does, and we know He's holding her close until we can snuggle our precious girl.
