Home Visit COMPLETE!

Our home visit with the social worker was completed today!! We turned in our birth and marriage certificates, local police clearance reports, financial reports, Adoption petition (This gives the reasons we want to adopt and lays out some other answers to questions China wants answered), as well as a few other document. The Social Worker completed the walk-through of our home to make sure it is completely safe for Michal, and she interviewed the boys.

Next, the social worker will meet with Matthew and I separately in two weeks. At that time she will collect our doctor's physical reports, as well as medical documents on the boys, and a verification of employment created by our CPA for both Matthew and I. Then, she will take all of the information and write up the written home study document.

This is a pretty big part of the information that will be sent to China as a part of our dossier, and almost all of the grant organizations require that your homestudy be complete for you to even apply for grants. So we are eager to get this completed so we can start applying!

All of the some of this same paperwork is needed for our I-800 A immigration documents as well as our dossier documents.  Actually, we have everything we need for the I-800 A documents and we hope to mail those out by Friday! From there we will wait for an invitation to be fingerprinted in Charleston by the Department of Homeland Security.

DON'T FORGET THE GARAGE SALE IS COMING UP MAY 4th from 8:00 am-12:00 pm at the STOREROOM at 2530 E. President Street. If yon can help us with it, please let us know, we need LOTS OF VOLUNTEERS! We have a massive amount of stuff to sell!
