Wondering what it is like re-using your dossier?
One word:

Easy.

Say it with me now, 3!

  • Updated Home study including our new kiddos
  • New application letter asking permission to re-use and permission to adopt
  • New immigration approval.
Granted, in our case we needed an entirely new home study which was kind of a bummer.
Our original home study approved us for two children,
which we fulfilled
hello Jacob & Joey
and even though our home study was still less than one year old
we needed a new one.
But nonetheless, so much less painful than the first time around especially since we were using the same home study agency that did our first one and they already knew what my favorite color was and how many time a day I pee.

So that's it peeps.
DTC and now we wait for LOA.

Expedited adoption re-using a dossier timeline looks something like this:


But believe me
When I know
You'll know.
Because I like you.
And you leave me nice comments.
