Dare I say it?

The paperwork is done! Everything is signed. The only thing left for me to do is pick up Dean's medical statement.

The next step is a home visit with the social worker which should be sometime next week. Once the Adam Walsh clearance comes back (I hear they're taking as long as 4 weeks right now. Anyone know?) we'll have the homestudy in our hands.

Once we have our homestudy in our hands, our dossier - aka "the paper baby" - will be sent to the translator in Serbia. I'm hoping it will only take a week or so to translate. While this is happening another copy of our homestudy will be sent to USCIS for approval. That process is currently running 4-6 weeks, which puts us to about mid-March. As soon as we have  USCIS approval we can set a travel date!!
