Saga Continues...

Just when we should be in the packing stage....

Last Wednesday, the Embassy emailed that after reviewing our file (I was happy to hear that they were looking at it), they determined that we need an amended home study because our child was no longer an "infant". He was 13 months old on April 6th. Luckily, other adoptive parents from our agency said that this could be an issue, so I had one done the end of February. I received a copy and another was sent to our local USCIS (US Citizenship & Immigration Serives) office.

I know the officer received it since they called our homestudy agency requesting other documents. I sent them a month or so ago. Now we are waiting to hear that the age change has been approved. From that office, it is off to another government office before that office notifies the Embassy in Vietnam.

Trying to remain faithful and trusting God to have this FINALLY work out, but it is hard. It is SO out of our hands. We have called some people that we think can help us, so now we have to wait and PRAY.

I will say that the Embassy has been GREAT about replying to my emails. They need the official notification from the American side, but they have reassured me that everything else looks good with our case (our DNA results arrived today/Monday).
