One Step Closer

Below is an email I received this morning from The National Visa Center....

Dear Sir/Madam:

Your inquiry has been received at the NVC. The adoption petition you
mentioned in your letter has recently been entered (14MAR2012) into our
computer system and assigned the case number listed below.

You will be notified once this case is forwarded to the assigned US
Embassy/Consulate General.

Once this case has been forwarded to the assigned US Embassy/Consulate
General, the NVC will send a copy of the approval letter via email.


Case Number:                  GUZ2012574033
Petitioner's Name:            RADEMACHER, LISA ANN
Principal Applicant's Name:   PU,MIN LING
Preference Category:          IH3
Your Priority Date:           24Feb2012
Foreign State Chargeability:  CHINA - MAINLAND
                              U.S. CONSULATE GENERAL, VISA SCN.
                              5TH FL. TIAN YU GARDEN (II PHASE)
                              136-142 LIN HE ZONG ROAD
                              TIAN HE DISTRICT, GUANGZHOU, CHINA

What this means is that the US Consulate in Guangzhou, China will review the visa application for Sara.  Once that is complete, in about 2 weeks, they will issue the Article 5.  Once this is picked up by our agency's in-China reps it is delivered directly to the Chinese Center for Adoption Affairs where our Travel Approval (TA) will be issued.  It can take from 2-4 weeks for the TA to be issued.  Once it is, we should travel 7-14 days after receiving the TA!!!!!

WE ARE GETTING VERY CLOSE!!!!!
