On Thursday our agency’s coordinator/attorney in Nepal successfully picked up our guarantee letter from the US embassy. This means the immigration component is all approved! He also submitted our dossier to the Ministry of Women & Children, the agency who handles the child placement in Nepal. We are still waiting on our registration number, which will be our official queue number in the system. Getting this supposedly can take up to a week – so any day now. Once we get that number, we’re official.
Still no word on timeline, but we have also recently heard that the first 3 matches have just occurred in Nepal! This news comes from the same coordinator, so sounds like a solid source. Also 180-200 children, mostly 18 months and older, are officially registered for adoption there. So it sounds like these children have been in orphanages for a while and waiting for the system to open up – so that is great news for them and their new families-to-be. And a good sign for us too.
Namaste.
