A Ukrainian delegation was in the United States during the week of November 12. Background on this delegation and my information sources are here.

I missed this tidbit of information...

The SDA will start taking new dossiers in Jan 2007. This will probably be after the holidays. From the US Embassy in Kyiv's holiday list.

Holiday..................Date
New Year's Day........December 31, Jan.1
New Year's Day........January 2
Orthodox Christmas...January 7, 8

The SDA expects that all the currently accepted dossiers will get appointments through March 2007.

Families who file dossiers in Jan 2007 could start getting appointments in April 2007.

The SDA is trying to see about 50 families a week/200 families per month.
