No News from DFES

I've just rung the DFES (still can't remember their new name!!) and they are still waiting for clarification of a vague message they received previously, stating what documents were needed to change to a SN expedited adoption. Serves me right for thinking anything about this adoption would run smoothly I suppose!! I'm fairly calm about it all though, I know that whatever it is the CCAA say they need we will be able to produce - as this adoption is what we are meant to do :-)

It takes up to 6 months( or in some cases longer) to send the paperwork to China! What do you expect. Thats one reason that I bypassed them in August and sent the documents directly to BLAS.

Hope you get some good news soon:)
