We sent our I-800A form off the to the USCIS office for approval on June 14. In this step we get approval from the US government to adopt a foreign child. We will wait for our appointment to get fingerprinted, and then we wait for the actual approval, this will take about 2 months. Please don't confuse this with another form we have to fill out later, where we ask the US government to give us permission to adopt a specific foreign child. Many times it feels like you are doing the same thing twice, or three times, but we know if we follow the rules we will have Lyla at the end.
It is really confusing isn't it? Or at least it's really hard to explain. Silly USCIS making us fill out so many forms!
