On Saturday we received our FDL--a letter from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services that we need to have in order to adopt. The official title of the letter is: Notice of Favorable Determination Concerning Application For Advance Processing of Orphan Petition.
While I don't understand all of the legal "stuff" (that's what our agency is for), I know it is another item that we get to check off the to-do list, which means we're one step closer to Baby Huss!
Here is an excerpt from the letter that is apparently what all of our fingerprinting and background checks were for...
It has been determined that you are able to furnish proper care to an orphan(s) as defined in Section 101(B)(1)(F) of the Immigration and Nationality Act.
If the Department of Homeland Security says so, then it must be true!

Yay!!! We still haven't heard back yet and it is stressing me out! Congrats!
Good grief, what a title!
Was just thinking today that I needed an update. Wondering if the LOST numbers had changed again. ;)
Just this morning I was thinking about your "week 2" numbers..can't wait to see how high you guys are!
Oh, and glad you have an agency that is your advocate....all that legal mumbo jumbo would overwhelm me...tax law is tough enough!
