Somehow, USCIS was reading our old instead of new homestudy. That has been straightened out. The actual hiccup is that our CANTS clearance (DCFS) expired and the agency had not yet requested an update. USCIS won't process the paperwork until we have our CANTS clearance. This usually only takes about 24 hours, but because of teh holiday, it is a little more backed up - still shouldn't take past next Monday. We have until the 29th to have it all cleared up according to USCIS. I think we are ok. This will not affect our receiving a date for court as this paper is not needed until our embassy date. It looks like we will be ok.
On a new note, our paperwork (I-600a and FBI fingerprints) expires on 10/30/2008. We have begun the process to request our free one time renewal of these two items. Our court date may or may not occur before they would expire so we are going to get the renewal no matter what at this point. Just when you thought the paperwork was over!!
We are anxiously awaiting word from the family who traveled to our orphanage a week ago. We are hoping for some tiny morsel of information on our babies. Anything would be great! Yes, I am begging - I need info!!
