yes, I think it is different for every agency.
My agency required everything to be completed--notarizations/authentications, plus home study, I-171H before they would consider giving a referral. I kind of liked it this way because if my paperwork was delayed for some reason along the way, there wasn't a baby waiting on the other end who was getting older day by day. And btw--my agency required my paper work to be PERFECT. I mean PERFECT, PERFECT, PERFECT!!! If they found ANY error whatsoever, it was sent back to me to completely redo. I'm always suprised when I see someone's time line and they are kicked out for a misspelled word--my agency wouldn't have ever let me get that far.
Only THEN would they give a referral.....but it made the time from referral to home quite short and I was in and out of PGN in 2 weeks.
So for my agency, paperready meant everything completed and perfectly done.
