Were making progress...Slowly but Shirley...
We got notification today that USCIS has received our I-800 (on Nov. 14th) and are working on our approval. We are told this process will take about 3 weeks for them to send our PA to us. Not sure if that will take a bit longer due to the Thanksgiving holiday this week.
Our Visa applications were taken to the Chinese Consulate in Chicago today and they can be picked up by our courier next week Tuesday and we then sent back to us!
We also found out that due to the Chinese New Year in January that Holt will not be sending families to China after January 6th. Since that pushes travel back for many families that could travel in January it could possibly delay our travel a bit. Keep praying that we can at least spend Robbie's first birthday with him on Feb. 27th!! I have to keep reminding myself that it's GOD'S plan for when we will travel not MINE. And it will all work out!
We were also able to ask our agency for an update on Robbie as our last update was in Sept. So we should see an update on him in a couple weeks!
We continue to ask for your prayers that the end of the paper chase goes smoothly and quickly for us so we can hold our son in our arms soon!
Tracy,
