Progress!!

I decided to wait until I had some news to report before I posted again.  I am happy to say that we have finally received our corrected, finalized homestudy from our social worker. (Yeah!!) If I tell you the drama it took to get to this point, you would understand my elation.  We had received numerous copies of our homestudy before this point, all with something not quite correct.  From typo's, to misspellings, to notary commissions that expired in November 2008 (and as all AP's and PAP's know, this would never work for the dossier; notary commissions have to be valid for at least 1 year).

Well finally, we received a set that seems to have everything we need!! (Whoopee). I have packed it all away into an envelope with our updated health reports, and off to our agency it will go in the morning.  

I also waited for our finalized home study before I resubmitted our I600A; so that will be in the mail tomorrow as well. We have fingerprints that are good until 2/2009 from our last I600A. Hopefully these can be used to get our initial 171H, and then we will just update in 2/2009.  

So we appear to be one step closer to agency approval, and our dossier is almost complete. (minus 171H and FBI clearance for the dossier)  So we're still aiming to make wait list by November (ok, I know I said September before, but hey things change).  Keep your fingers crossed.
