Here it is folks..........

I will come back and add more later!

China Center for Adoption Affairs

Like a "watched pot not boiling" apparently you need to stop watching the CCAA website for it to change.

When I wasn't looking they updated the site again!!!

The newest update has to do with the "Review Room" and not the "Matching Room".

They have reviewed the documents registered (logged in) before January 31, 2006.

*************************

What does this mean?????????

Well, first I need to say that when the CCAA says registered before a date they, (in the past) have always included that date. So for us it translates to On or Before!

When the dossiers (all our paperwork) is received in China the CCAA logs it in and sends us this date. This date is like the numbered ticket you receive at the Deli Counter. When your number comes up you get your order.......When our date comes up we get matched with a beautiful (maybe two) baby('s).

The next thing that happens is we get color coded by our Adoption Agency and put in a stack. When the person who works with our agency gets to our stack the first thing they do is review all of our paperwork to make sure that it meets their standards. If they have any questions or issues they get in touch with us through our agency. If everything is in order then we continue along in the process till we get matched.

They have completed a review of dossiers received through January. So that means they are now working on February and possibly a little of March. Our little fingers are crossed until the website says they have completed through April 30th 2006. That would mean that they had no questions for us and we can move along in the process.

Thanks for all of your questions on this process! It is so wonderful to know that you are all involved in this process with us.

FINALLY!!!!!

I was beginning to wonder if it would ever change again. I haven't had a chance to process this information.....so I am not sure if I am happy about the dates or not but here is the latest update from the CCAA. (China Center of Adoption Affairs)
