Our agency is getting all of our paperwork ready to be sent to China. This includes getting the important documents notarized, state sealed, and authenticated. This process can take anywhere from 3-4 weeks. Our documents started the process last Tuesday and are at the last step! HOPEFULLY, they will be ready on Monday, June 6th (though I would take Friday)! ;)
After this, our agency looks over all of the documents to be mailed and makes sure everything is in order. Then, the whole stack gets shipped to China!! This is referred to as DTC (date to China). We wait for the CCCWA (China Center for Children's Welfare and Adoption) to officially accept our paperwork. This is referred to as LID (logged in date). Then, the big wait for the SUPER important step of LOA (letter of acceptance). This is like the turning point of the adoption and is the biggest step for HUGE variations in timelines.
Can't wait to be able to continue along this process!
