Still waiting on the elusive \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Travel Approval\u00e2\u20ac\u009d from the CCAA. We did receive a call from the travel department of our agency on Friday, confirming a few things with us (who is traveling, how many hotel rooms will we need, our port city, etc.) They expect our TA to show up next week! After that arrives, they will work with the CCAA to make an appointment with the Chinese consulate in Guangzhou. Once that appt. is made, they decide our beginning and end dates of travel. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re guessing our travel will be from about 2\/13-2\/28. This is all assuming that TA does come next week. And, another hiccup is that we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re STILL waiting on our re-newed I-171H form after being fingerprinted again on 1\/7. Yes, again. Our fingerprints had \u00e2\u20ac\u0153expired\u00e2\u20ac\u009d so we had to go through all that paperwork again. Randy wonders how our fingerprints could expire? So, our lovely US immigration dept has to approve us to travel to China once again. I think we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve contributed to the devastation of at least one forest, with all the paperwork we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve done with this adoption! lol\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n
Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s to good news next week\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6TA and Immigration approval!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
