Paperwork problems in adoption of two Vietnamese orphans bring heartache

Note the last lines of the article: "Rummery (a California spokeswoman for USCIS) said the U.S. government has always encouraged people adopting abroad to file all their paperwork first and get visa approval before traveling to get their children... 'Whenever you travel first and then file,' she said, 'you take a risk.'"
I had no idea that it was *always* an option to file the visa app. and be approved before travel. I thought this was a new change because of all the recent problems. Were you guys aware that this was always an option in the past?

While I have heard of a rare person that had filed, I didn't know it was possible either.
I thought that line was strange too. I don't think that was possible with Vietnam until these recent changes.
