Smile DNA Authorized Today

After posting and whining today about not having DNA authorized last week, we got the authorization slip today. Our agency has already sent payment to LabCorp and the DNA samples are scheduled to be taken tomorrow as well as the SWI. The birth mother is also going to sign a POA tomorrow too. Hopefully this time we can sail through FC, PA and PGN with our first referral.

Clue Me In

So-you Have To Have Dna Authorization Before Dna Is Done And We Will Be Notified That We Have Authorization? I Ask Because 3 Weeks Or So Ago Our Visa Was Charged For Dna But As Far As We Know It Has Not Been Done. I Quess I Have Been Hoping It Was Done And We Just Didnt Know It.
