Back on track

Our Article 5 package has been located, returned to our in China rep and was delivered to the Consulate on Thursday (they are 12 hours ahead of us).  We lost 12 days in the process, but if the TA comes quick we will be right on our target dates of June 21-July 5.  Oh happy day.  For those reading this who do not understand the process, our Article 5 process takes 14 days for processing.  As soon as that is done it gets picked up and sent overnight to Beijing where we wait for our TA (travel approval).  TA’s are taking 2-3 weeks currently and as soon as we have TA we request a Consulate Appointment and make our travel arrangements.  We are nearly in the final stretch.
