Acronyms...

This is what I have learned today...

APC http://groups.yahoo.com/group/a-parents-china/
LID – Log in Date
DTC – Dossier to China
TA – Travel Approval (called other things in other countries, this is the Notice of Coming to China)
CA – Consulate Appointment
SN – special needs
NSN – non special needs
PA – Pre-approval (part of the SN process)
PAP – Potential Adoptive Parent
LOA – Letter of Acceptance – used in both NSN and SN process. In NSN program it is the document that allows you to officially accept a referral. In SN program the CCAA sends it after the LOI and before TA.
LOI – Letter of Intent (again, used in the SN process)
SWI / CWI – Social/Children’s Welfare Institute, what orphanages are called in China
