Wait mode

All right so we are just waiting for our I171H. Once we receive it, we go through the entire notary, Secretary of State, Vietnam Consulate process once again. Then our dossier will be complete and ready to be sent to Vietnam to be translated. Once it is translated (usually about a week's time) it will be sent to the Department of International Adoption (the new step in the process since March 1st) and we wait for our referral.
