The Guatemala National Council for Adoptions ended the registration period for transition adoption cases on February 12, 2008. We are very pleased to report, that close to 3,000 cases were registered under the ‘new’ system. It is also our understanding that the 3,000 registrations include virtually all of the adoptions initiated under the Notarial system.
Joint Council has been informed that an individual adoption case is considered registered provided the aviso filed with the National Council for Adoptions (CNA), has been stamped (with a number) and signed. The CNA is currently developing a database of all registered cases. Once completed, the CNA will provide the database to PGN. It is our understanding that PGN will begin processing cases upon their receipt of the CNA database.
We also have information that approximately 100 cases were not registered with the CNA, according to the revised registration process. The lack of registration for these cases may preclude the completion of these specific adoptions. Any adoption service provider or adoptive parent who did not register their case(s) with the new CNA should contact their Guatemalan attorney immediately.

The Lord Shows His Mercy to Us
Yesterday was a day of good news for the Milton Household. We received our USCIS approval to be re-fingerprinted and extend the validity of the I-171-H.
We also learned that our girls have officially been registered with the CNA. They are not giving out the constancias, but photocopy the submitted forms and stamp them as having been received.
There will be a flood of cases now submitted to PGN to review. The positive thing is that those cases that were not KO'd have continued to be approved at a high rate and thus alleviating some of the congestion. There are still over 2000 cases to be submitted.
There are those of us still awaiting Pre-approval from our own government for Visa that cannot be submitted until that comes.... so we wait still. We are on day 41 of our wait today, but prayerfully continue hoping that God in his mercy will once again move the government officials to quickly give the approval so that these babies can be with their forever family.
Our hope is in the Lord and not in the political systems of this world, for we know that He holds the hearts of kings in his hands and moves them to do His sovereign will. Proverbs 21:1
