Things have been a little crazy for everyone as we try to figure out and readjust to India's changing requirements for adoption. We were originally eligible for a referral as soon as our agency had our completed home study. That changed to needing our home study, dossier, and USCIS approval before we could be registered with India. However, I just found out that since we have filed with USCIS, we can be registered with India, since our approval will be following soon!!
India is now only taking new registrations the first of every month, and only allowing a certain number of total registrations from all agencies before the website locks down. In good news, our agency was able to register all of their eligible families at the start of this month. We are now eligible for the next round on March 1st, and are hoping that they are able to get us registered within India's set quota so we won't have to wait another month to be eligible for a referral.
That probably sounds overwhelming to those who have not been through this process. It's overwhelming to me and I have had my finger on the pulse of it all for months now. Please just pray with us that our agency is able to get us registered with India on March 1st. Thank you for your prayers, friends! That will put us one giant step closer to our little Lotus Bud!
