Off to the Chinese Consulate

Some of our paperwork, which we've already had apostilled by the Secretary of State, has now as of today been sent to the Chinese Consulate in Chicago and Steve's birth certificate has been sent to the New York consulate because he was born in Ohio. We have already gotten our fingerprint appointment so our I-800 is moving right along. Once we get that, then we can finish our paperwork. I am still waiting for the California one to come back. I was born in CA so my birth certificated has to be authenticated there. I didn't know all this mailing was going to be so expensive. We have to send it express mail plus pay $20 plus $5 handling fee for each document. This round we had 7 documents so you do the math. I can't wait to get all this stuff done.
