After passing court it generally takes about a month or so before all of the documents (child's new birth certificate, passport, embassy medical exam, etc.) are ready for a case to be submitted to embassy. There was a typo on ONE of our documents, which took over 3 weeks to get corrected. BUT, our file was submitted to the Embassy on June 22nd :) Yeah- finally!!!!! This is the last step before being able to bring Bereket home. Once they review and approve our file they will send us an email letting us know we are cleared for travel and give us a few options of dates to choose from for our interview appointment with them. We are hoping to hear from them this week or next and travel within the next few weeks. We are feeling so very close now!!!
