We submitted our paperwork to be Apostilled today and we'll pick it up on Tuesday! Very exciting. Just a couple things I've learned. You have to have a certified copy of your Marriage Certificate and Warranty Deed. We got copies notarized and they won't Apostille those. The date was wrong on our Marriage Certificate and the adoption agency said to just notarize our original, but they wouldn't accept that. So we had to go get it changed and new ones printed out. Also for those who live in Davis County, the County Assessors office doesn't have letterhead to go with the forms they print out (for property assessment) so I had to type up one similar to SLC for them to fill out. (If anyone needs a copy let me know and I'll send this one to you). Good Luck to everyone out there doing the exact same thing. I'm so relieved that I won't have to go get anything else fixed or notarized again (with correct wording... don't use original or copy of original, they will only accept True Copy), or at least I hope I don't!
Now the waiting game begins : ) or : ( I don't know if it will be better or worse. I'm tired of running around getting documents, but it has kept me busy.

Hurray! I also went to the appostille today and had a similar issue with the certified copies of my certified marriage certificate and a bigger issue with my certified warranty deed but that was a SL County issue. Congrats! I feel like 20 pounds lighter. I hope you do too!
Just a little side note. Your papers have to be good for six months after your SDA date. We had to redo some of ours so you might not be done with the appostille thing yet.
