India Itinerary

August 4th, 2008

Day I:

1.  Collect application form from US Consulate for visa.
2.  Visit doctor for child’s medical check-up.
3.  Photo studio for child’s passport and other documents.
4.  Return to doctor’s clinic after 5 pm to pick up sealed Medical packet.
5.  Return to Photo studio to pick up photos

Day 2:

1. 9:00 am – Visit US Consulate with Medical packet and List of documents. Take your child with you for the Interview.
2. Return to Consulate between 3-4 pm (check the hours) to pick up your child’s visa and passport.

Departure day:

1.  Arrive at airport at least 3 hours before departure so you can confirm bulkhead seats with bassinet for you and baby (these are in high demand, and you may get bumped even if you have confirmed seats).  Appearing overwhelmed, exhausted, and/or tearful (that should not pose a challenge at this point in your journey) can only help your situation.

Not sure what happens the rest of the time…I got this from ,

a very helpful Indian adoption website. I’ll add more as we find out what our journey will look like.
