What are the most common mistakes that families adopting from China make when compiling their dossier?

0

The most common and also quite a time consuming mistake that adoptive families make when compiling their dossier is with the required notary seals. Often, families use notaries with expired (or close to expiring) commissions. Another common problem is that the notary is required to sign his/her name exactly the same way it appears on the notary stamp and often they do not. In the dossier instructions that families receive from AAI, there is a page entitled INSTRUCTIONS FOR NOTARIZATION OF DOCUMENTS. Families should take this with them each time they are getting a document notarized. If the notarization is done incorrectly, the document must be redone, and this is frustrating and time consuming. The China dossier is a fairly simple dossier to compile if some of these troublesome areas are avoided.
