Well, one of the first families that got an RFE (Request for Evidence) about a month before us just got their travel approval. This is awesome news. Not only, will that family finally be together, but the rest of us can get ideas from her rebuttal to guide our efforts.
Currently, additional newspaper ads have to be placed asking the birthmothers to come forward. Also, a lawyer has been hired to complete additional affidavits. He will search for the birth parents. visit their supposed addresses and interview the hospital to verify their procedures.
Again, all in the hopes of gaining a clearer pictures of the cultural practices coupled with hospital operations. We must prove that Pearl is indeed an orphan, abandoned by her birthmother. It will be key to demonstate no one has tried to pick her up at the orphanage, which has been the case....
Keep your fingers crossed.

I have just run across your blog - - can't believe I haven't seen it until now! Your family and ours have similar stories - we received our RFE on 8/8, submitted additional evidence, and are also awaiting a response. I would love to e-mail you directly....I am desperate to hear how others have battled this! Our blog is at www.journeytokai.blogspot.com
