We found out that our case was submitted to the new agency Central Authority on the 30th. This means that our attorney was able to fill out the required form and get it back to them within their scheduled deadline. We are now waiting for the Central Authority to issue some sort of certificate stating that we are officially registered with them. Our attorney will then take our case and the certificate to PGN and re-submit our case with them. Once our case is back in PGN we pray that there will be no more issues and that it will sail through all of the reviewer’s desks. We don't have a timeline for what needs to be done because there is never a guarantee with how long your case will take in PGN. I can tell you what all we still have to get done before we can go and bring Madison home.
Once our case is approved by PGN our attorney will then apply for a new birth certificate with our last name on it for Madison's last name. Then a second DNA test will be ordered to prove that she is still the same child and has not been switched since the first DNA test. She will also go for a doctor's appointment with a US Embassy approved doctor for a final check up. A passport will be issued for her to travel to the United States and then an appointment will be made for us to meet with the US Embassy for her Visa to be issued. It seems like a lot still left to do but we are trying to just take things one day at a time and our biggest hurdle will be with finally getting our approval from PGN. Once we get that then it is all downhill from there. As soon as we know more I will post it here.
Thanks for all of your prayers and support. PLEASE keep on praying. THERE IS POWER IN PRAYER
