DTC!!!

We are DTC (Documents to China). YEA!!!

The next steps are:
  • After the dossier is received by Great Wall in China, they will walk it into the CCAA (China Center for Adoption Affairs) and we’ll get a Log In Date (LID). It typically takes about 6-8 weeks for the CCAA to send the agency the LID. The dossier is logged in pretty quickly, but it takes a while to get the date.
  • Translation (CCAA translates all documents to Chinese);
  • Review Room (CCAA reviews dossier for eligibility requirements); and
  • Matching Room (CCAA matches us with child).

We are on our way.

CONGRATS on being DTC! I hope you get a very speedy LID :) Ours took about a month to hear when it was (but our LID was only 11 days after DTC).

Thanks Amy & Tracy. It's very exciting!! I know they project a long wait, but I'm happy to have hit this milestone.
