New Progress

这几天,我天天给美国签证中心打电话,领养代办人也天天给广州美领馆打电话,今天总算有了好消息。美领馆终于查到了我们的材料。审阅后如没问题,他们两天后就可以给北京收养中心发通知。收养中心确认后,就给我们发“旅行批准 (TA)”。收到旅行批准后,我们就可以随时出发去接小安娜了。这真是一环扣一环,哪个环节出了差错都不行。我希望两星期内能收到旅行批准, 踏上我们盼望已久的旅程。
For the last few days, I have been calling the National Visa Center every day, and our agency has been calling the consulate in Guangzhou every night. We finally heard the good news from the consulate that they have located our file and they will approve it within two days. The approval will be delivered to CCAA and our TA should be issued. I hope we can receive our TA within two weeks. Once our TA arrives, we should be able to travel very soon to pick up Anna, which we have been longing for since last September.
