Brandon and I are headed back to the doctor tomorrow to get our 2nd round of immunizations against Hepatitis. I can only hope that I get to flash everyone in the doctor's office again.
Other than that, we continue to put together our paperwork for our Russian dossier. Just to give you an idea of what is included for that, here is a quick list of the major items we need:
1) A medical review form filled out by our doctor. Must have 2 original, notarized copies for each of us.
2) Two notarized copies of our doctor's license. (If you ever want to get a really inquisitive look from your doctor, tell him you need a notarized copy of his actual doctor's license. The look is priceless.)
3) Two notarized letters from my company stating my position, how long I have worked there, and my salary.
4) Two notarized letters from our CPA stating that Brandon is self-employed and how much she made last year.
5) Two notarized copies of our CPA's license.
6) Color photo copies of both our passports. (Which I thought was illegal to limit counterfeits.)
7) Certified copies of our marriage license.
8) A completed home study.
9) State police clearance letters. (Part of our background check and clearance.)
10) Pictures of every room in our home, plus the front & back. Also pictures of our immediate family and us.
11) Copies of our tax returns for the last 3 years.
The most difficult thing to get has been the notarized copy of our doctor's license (he's a part of a large practice, so they had to track it down in the corporate files). We will be going to get the ball rolling on the state police letter in the next few days, so I hope that goes easier than it sounds (see previous posts regarding USCIS).
We hope to have most of this done by the end of this month so that we can get our dossier put together, sent to the state for authentication, and then sent on to Russia to get approved. From there, the long wait for being matched to a child begins.
