I forgot to post that our homestudy was finally officially accepted by Wide Horizons a few days ago. There had been some missing paperwork that the homestudy agency hadn't told us about. I think the two agencies have only partnered recently, so they seem to still be ironing out the communication kinks. Not a big deal, since we still have Mount Dossier looming in front of us. Dang, those instructions are long!
We also got a USCIS fingerprinting appointment for January 20. Tabb reminded me NOT to do any weeding, because last time my fingerprinting had to be delayed due to a giant blister.
Anyway, the dossier instructions were printing out as I wrote this. I'm about to get a beer and start reading them.
Enjoy the beer! I did get your e-mail and promise to write soon!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the dossier. And as someone who "lotions" her hands a lot, be cautious of that too. It can made your finger print imprints not as deep. So if you have to, go with dry hands for a few days before.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Kyra! One more step out of the way!
ReplyDeletePS - I totally went with dry hands for a couple of days before my printing yesterday :) all went very smoothly
Speaking from experience...it takes a lot of beer to get through that dossier!
ReplyDeleteCrack open that beer and dive right in. I pretty much attacked the dossier and beat it into submission =) It was intense, but I was determined to get it knocked out as quickly as possible. It really wasn't that bad, but I am sure a lot depends upon the city where you live. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on completing the homestudy! Good luck with the dossier!
