Here is what happens now:
1) We wait to hear from USCIS in Vietnam that they have received our i600 paperwork.(we expect to receive this email at the end of the week or early next week)
2) They begin their investigation by either traveling to the province OR requesting a DNA test for Henry and his birth mother. (My guess is that they will request this test)
3) If they request the test, a DNA kit is sent to Hanoi from the US. Then our agency goes to Lang Son to pick up Henry, his nanny and his birth mom. They travel together to Hanoi for the test. The kit is then sent back to the US for analysis, and the results are sent to VN. Then we will hopefully hear the words "it's a match" and our date for travel will be set. From start to finish this process can happen in about 3-4 weeks.
There is still hope that we can bring home Henry before the holidays. What an amazing gift that would be!!!
Mark and I are off to be fingerprinted this morning. Our prints expire in December.
I'll keep you all posted on our progress!
