Update on Referrals

The CCAA stands for "China Center of Adoption Affairs". They are the ones who place us with our children. Every 3-4 weeks we get an update on their status. Here it is as of today:

"The CCAA has finished the review of the adoption application documents registered with our office before December 31, 2005.

The CCAA has finished the placement of children for the families whose adoption application documents were registered with our office before August 9, 2005."

Basically, this means that all dossiers with a log in date (LID) of December 31, 2005 and earlier have been reviewed by the CCAA. If the agency hasn't contacted the adoptive family with any problems, then these people have been approved by China to adopt the child(ren) they are requesting. For those with LIDs before Aug. 9, 2005, they have been matched with their children and are receiving their referrals this week! Congrats to all those who fall in these categories!

There are 18 days in this month's batch of referrals, which is wonderful news! Lately it's been only about a week of referrals each month. Things may be looking up yet...
