Some last details...

We are finally close to sending in our final mailer (Mailer #2). We had a few questions for our adoption agency (Great Wall China Adoption):

(1) Can you confirm that the final payment to Great Wall should be $4250 (our premier plan installment #2)? And that our China Registration and Wiring fee is $850? For a total payment of $5100?

(2) We are supposed to send in the "I-171-H or I-797C (photocopy of form with notarial statement)". We have received our I-171-H back from San Antonio. It is two pages stapled. We don't see any "notarial statement" on either page, but we assume we simply need to photocopy page 1.......the page which reads "Notice of Favorable Determination Concerning Application for Advance Processing of Orphan Petition"?

(3) Does the Post-Placement Verification statement simply need to be filled out by us in the presence of a notary, with the notary signing, stamping and doing her notary "thing"?

Hi Dianne and Marc,

That’s so exciting!

You’re correct on the agency fee, but the registration and wiring fee was raised to $990 (this fee is established by the CCAA).

For the notarial statement, you’ll need to make a photocopy of the I-171H and attach it to the form I’ve attached here to the email. This form needs to be signed by one of you and notarized.

You will not need to submit a Post Placement form since those will be done by one of our social workers.

Everything else looks great!

Woohoo!

We'll get with our notary early next week. Then write GW the check. Then out the door early next week.

Then we are done and will wait. So exciting!
