Dossier Complete!!

Last Wednesday, I went to Raleigh for the second time to have my dossier appostilled. For those who don't know what that is...all 24 parts of my dossier have to be notoraized. Then each notary stamp has to be approved by the state (appostilled). The Sec. of States office has to stick a non-removable approval page to the front of each of my pages. I mailed out my completed dossier on Wed. I can't believe it's done!! Lorien will now send it off to be approved and translated. She said that it should take about two weeks and then it will be registered in Moscow. As of now, there are three or four dossier ahead of me, but by the time mine is recieved, those should be matched. Hopefully by week-after-next, I will find out it has been registered and maybe even get a travel date. I am still hoping to make my first trip by the end of June.

Amy,

My husband and I are also adopting from Russia. I am at a similar step as you. We switched from Uzbekistan to Russia. My dossier just got completed yesterday and is sent off to my agency. Now, we are just waiting for our change of country approval from USCIS. Have you heard any more news on your possible travel? Feel free to check our my blog or email me. It is nice to have people to "talk" with who are in similar places in the adoption process.
