No matter when you begin to consider Catholicism, rest assured that God is present from the first moment of your spiritual journey.  As you begin to feel a tugging at your heart or the call of "the still small voice within," God is there.  In your questions and desire to know more, God is there.
There are many reasons you may yearn to deepen your relationship with God.  It may be a search for meaning in life, searching for God, searching for the Truth or searching for family unity. 

The decision to embrace Catholicism entails more than adopting a set of beliefs or following certain practices.  Entering the Catholic Church opens us to new spiritual insights and a new understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ. Becoming Catholic may involve a transformation from having "no belief" to suddenly discovering what it means to be a Christian. It may be a reawakening of belief. Or for someone already committed to Christ, it may mean moving to a different dimension of belief. 

The process for becoming Catholic is called the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults.  It is a series of steps (formal rites) conducted in the context of learning about the faith and spiritual formation, through which a person is fully incorporated in the Body of Christ, the Catholic Church.
