I-800-A Application

What is our next step?  Since we completed our homestudy-we have officially been granted permission by our social worker  

"Therefore, this worker recommends and approves them for the adoption of a child from the country of China.  They are approved to adopt a female child aged infant to 2 years old.  They are approved to adopt a child with special needs, including but not limited to cleft lip/cleft palate and/or developmental delays."  
  
Now we're ready to fill out one of the first USCIS Forms necessary for our adoption - Form I-800A! The full name of this form is Application for Determination of Suitability to Adopt a Child from a Convention Country, the convention country being China is this case. USCIS will evaluate whether not we are suitable to adopt a child from China.  The I-800A is the first form we will fill out with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This form is completed in order to start the international adoption process in order to adopt a child who lives within a Hague Convention country-China. The I-800A form along with other documents are required in order for the USCIS to determine your eligibility to adopt a child.
