今天一大早，刚刚从女儿学校开完家长会，先生就打电话来，说移民局发来了邮件，我们的领养申请已经被批准了。批准表格叫I-797C。 最近两个星期，每隔两三天我就给移民局的官员打电话或发邮件，催问进展。今天收到批准，虽说是预料之中，但也很兴奋。有了这张批准表，我们下一步就可以去San Diego County 和加州州务卿那儿公证所有文件，然后再由我们的领养代办人送到中国领事馆，做最后认证。之后所有的文件就可以寄到中国民政部领养中心。最后一步批准大约要3个月左右。
This morning, right after a parent-teacher conference with Leah's teacher, my husband called me and said that the INS had approved our application, the I-797C. These few weeks, I have been calling or emailing the USCIS every few days to inquire about the application's progress. Although we have been anticipating approval, we were still very excited. Next we need three levels of authentication for all the documents: the San Diego County Clerk, the Secretary of State, and the Chinese consulate. Lastly, all the documents will be sent to the CCAA for final approval. It will take 3 months or so to get the LOA.
