USCIS APPROVED

So, we have been approved to adopt both girls 😀😀😀

next step is getting our last documents appostilled and shipped to EE!

the current wait time from submission to travel is 3 months, so we are planning to travel in January.

current status

We turned in everything to USCIS (US immigration) Aug 4th, and they have 75 days to approve us for adoption. Hopefully we get approval faster as i emailed them a letter from our pediatrician stressing the urgency to get the girls here- especially in light of Cara's heart condition.

Please pray for speedy approval for us. Then we have our last form for submission to the country we are adopting from. This country has been taking longer and longer to process adoptions, so prayers will be needed there too!

Announcement !

So today I would like to introduce to you "Waniya" ! She is also almost ten and we will be bringing her home as well ! Waniya has cerebral palsy and an eye condition. She has already been transferred to an adult facility, and the place she was moved is not a good place. We need to get her out as soon as possible!

This week we are furiously compiling our dossier (which means doing tons of paperwork!) and applying for adoption grants (also TONS of paperwork!) to try and get these girls home. 

our FSP has been updated with Waniya !  http://reecesrainbow.org/119538/sponsorgrandt
