Please do not forget to send us your I-171H when you receive it from. Be sure that your I-171H form signifies that INS has approved the adoption and that the application has been forwarded by cable to the American Consulate, in Moscow, Russia, unless you wish to adopt from Romania, then make sure that the application has been forwarded by cable to the American Consulate, in Bucharest, Romania If the child you re adopting is three years old or older, you should include a small photo album for your child containing pictures of both of you and any family members and pets living in your home, plus a photo of your home and the child's bed or room. You may want to label each picture so that your child can be told by his nurse your names or pets' names, etc. You should also put your child's name on the album. The album should be very small.
Large albums are very expensive to ship.
Also, if you want to adopt only one child, you might as well apply for two or three children in case you change your mind .
