I called our local USCIS office today to confirm that they had received our home study (we sent it on March 23). I spoke to a very nice lady and was actually shocked to get an answer straight away...I have NEVER gotten a real live person before! Anyway, I asked her if she had received our home study...it has been 16 days since I fed ex'ed it to the lock box in TX. Plenty of time to go to TX and back again. She was a little confused as to why I sent it to TX first. REALLY? Because that is where my home study agency told me to send it!!! She then went on to say, "why would you send it to TX if you knew it was coming back here anyways??" Good question Officer P..... When dealing with the government, I do what I am told. Period. And I trust our home study agency because we have paid them some $2***.00. This is not Lifeline, we are so thrilled with Lifeline! Not so thrilled with our home study agency. I am really hoping the woman didn't get the memo and that I really was supposed to send it to the lockbox.
I then asked her if there was some number that I could call to see if it was on track to go to our local office. She said no. Great. What to do now? Try and get someone to talk to on the USCIS general line who knows where our home study is located. A friend gave me a tip today so I will be trying that tomorrow.
So the wait continues with our CIS approval as well as with the situation in country. No news on that front....
We are still praying for the families that have been there for 8-10 weeks and counting. Some are headed home without their children...God please make miracles happen THIS week for these families so they do not have to leave their kids (some for the second time). Give them peace and comfort as they continue to wait. Give them joy in the simplest things in these day of uncertainty.
