On Monday morning we headed to the office of Homeland Security here in Nashville. On a side note, it is so helpful that we live in our state capital. If not, we would have already had to do a lot of travelling to get various papers signed, fingerprints, etc. Let me just say, Jonathon and I were the only ones that were excited to be at this office. Apparently no one else was there for the same purpose! Not many people there were enjoying their day. This is also not a great place for Jonathon to be as he takes great pleasure in trying to get people to smile and laugh. Note to self-Homeland Security employees aren't hired for their sense of humor :)
It took Jonathon about 8 attempts to actually get his prints! His little pinkie just wouldn't cooperate. Even with all paperwork and that pinkie struggle, this whole process took 12 minutes!!! Over 3 months to get things worked out with immigrations, but only 12 min to complete!
Next step-we are anxiously awaiting the approval notice from immigrations. Then we will finally be able to turn in our completed dossier, so our official time on the "wait list" will begin!
Thank you all for your continuous support and encouragement- can't tell you how much we appreciate it!
Congratulations! One step closer! And we're not too far behind you! We're watching your process with excitement!
ReplyDeleteThanks Robyn! We have been catching up on your story as well. So excited for you guys! Right now we are in the stage where we are taking in everything we can like a sponge! If you are there too, just finished a good book for family and close friends called-"In On It" by Elisabeth O'Toole. Reading "I'm Chocolate, You're Vanilla"-let you know if thats worth a read!
