Found this summary of the rest of our paperwork (and wait times) on a great site: www.china-adoption-online.com. This might help clarify what we are waiting for.
"10) Once you have I-800 approval, [we are waiting on this right now] your officer will forward your approval to the NVC(National Visa Center). NVC will upload your approval into their system and cable (send) your approval the US consulate. Then the NVC will issue a letter stating they have done this. It takes about one week to be cabled, and another week to receive the letter.
11) Once you receive the NVC letter , send it to your agency immediately! They will deliver this letter to the US consulate in China. 12) Once the consulate has your NVC letter, they will issue your Article 5 in 2-3 weeks. The Article 5 is the consulate pre-approving your child for an immigrant visa. Your agency will have a courier pick up the Article 5 and take it to the CCAA.
13) Once the CCAA receives the Article 5, the Travel Approval will then be issued. This takes around 2-4 weeks. At this point, your agency will make travel arrangements for you to go to China and adopt your child!"
clear as mud? Me too.
