Nothing too much to report, unfortunately. We are still just waiting for the final draft of our homestudy, in order to set up an appointment for our federal fingerprinting, get USCIS approval and finally get our paperwork to China. Mike called the homestudy agency today and they said that our social worker is on vacation until Thursday. However, they also said that the homestudy had been completed and was sent to CAWLI (our agency) for review. Mike called CAWLI today to confirm whether or not they have received it. Hopefully, when he comes home today, he'll have some good news....

UPDATE: Mike just called and CAWLI has received our homestudy draft from Family Focus (Thank you Sandra!) Yay! They said that within the next day or so, they will be done making any necessary changes/corrections, and send it back to Family Focus to finalize. Stephanie (the social worker from CAWLI) also said that Family Focus is excellent at writing home studies for China, so there probably won't have to be any corrections. So, by next week, we should be in posession of our final homestudy and should be able to send in the I600A to USCIS. We'll start filling out the I600A tonight so we are prepared to mail it out when the time comes.
