I got home today and found an email telling me my Dossier is DTC today!! 2/29!!! HAPPY LEAP YEAR!!! This is much sooner than I was expecting after yesterdays email. So excited... doing the Happy Dance in Missoula, Montana!!
For those that aren't aware DTC is Dossier To China. This is a HUGE step in the China adoption world. I have been telling my coworkers... it is sort of equivalent to a pregnant woman finding out if she is having a Boy or a Girl. A monumental step... but many more months and steps to go!!!
This is the email I got from my agency CCAI:
"CONGRATULATIONS, Carmel,
Here’s the news you’ve long been waiting
for—your dossier was sent to China today (2/29)! J
Here’s what to expect for the next month:
The CCCWA will receive your dossier in approximately 3-5
days. Our China Department will contact you by email once your dossier has been
received by our representatives in China and hand-delivered to the CCCWA.
The CCCWA usually logs in dossiers within 3 weeks of their
receipt and should notify us of your Log-In Date (LID) shortly thereafter. We will e-mail you as soon as we have
confirmation of your LID and will then give you instructions on how to download
your LID Packet. Your LID will also be posted on your personal online Parent
Access Network (PAN) page of the CCAI website, www.chinesechildren.org, the instant
we are notified of it."
