We got our LID!

Today we were informed by our agency that our login date (LID) is May 13, 2009! What this means is that our dossier has been officially "logged in" at CCAA and is now in the queue for review. Not much has changed since our last post as they have reviewed dossiers logged in through April 2007 and referred through March 8, 2008. At the moment, with the current wait of 38+ months we would get our referral sometime in July 2012.

Although we are excited to finally get a LID, it is a little frustrating that it took so long as our dossier was sent to China on April 21. However, we have expected to expect the unexpected in this process so it is what it is. Hopefully, the wait will get shorter but whatever it is will be worth it in the end.

Our thoughts are currently with all those families who are so close to a referral but whose wait has been extended due to the swine flu scare. The most recent expected batch of referrals seem to have been delayed until the swine flu scare settles down. We hope this won't happen to us!
