I know what you mean by still acting like a puppy. Thanks for the congrats. We are still so excited and overwhelmed with things to do. I'm so glad to hear that you got your paperwork figured out.

So far that hasn't been a problem, but no one told us about the immigration paperwork.

We just sent ours off last week as well. However, the big difference is that we're barely one month into ICAB approval, while you guys are nearly ten months in and possibly getting close to a referral!! How come no one from your agency told you about the immigration paperwork before this?! Our agency sent us the paperwork for Canadian immigration when they finished reviewing our file and sent off our folder to the Philippines. When our resource person called us to tell us that we had ICAB approval, she made sure we had the documents and reminded us to get started on the immigration papers. She explained the procedure to us and told us to contact her if we had any questions. From what I understand, your agency didn't give you the paperwork till you asked for it? No one explained the procedure to you, and you were left to find out about this all on your own over the internet?! I am pretty angry about that for you...it shouldn't work that way. The agency is supposed to be there to help you and guide you along the way throughout the adoption procedure.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03821014622765695024noreply@blogger.com
