Over another hurdle!


This morning we got our I-600 receipt from the US Embassy in Ho Chi Minh city. This is the start of our "real" wait. At this point, the USCIS in Vietnam will decide how they would like to investigate our daughter's abandonment and then whether they will approve her adoption. It can take 60 or more working days from this point (which is 3 or more real months). The hope is that they will approve her adoption and grant her a visa to return with us to the US. Once we receive notification of favorable approval, then we can travel to pick her up fairly quickly. I'm sure this summer is going to go *really* slowly!
