It Arrived!!!

Our I-797C (immigration approval) arrived in the mail today a mere 8 days after being fingerprinted!!! Of course, that took me completely off-guard because we thought we had some more time to decide on a new agency. Well, we don't. In fact, now switching to a new agency will set us back. So, I was thrilled to see it, but spent the rest of the night stressed out. I've been trigger shy about the new agency switch, but we can't afford that anymore.

So.....tomorrow is the big day! We'll apply to a new agency (and beg and plead that they fast-track our application) and I get a copy of our I-797C notarized. That way, once we are on board with our new agency and they've looked over our documents to make sure they are all set, we can be ready to take them for certification and then send them off for authentication! So, it's exciting and stressful all at the same time! I can see the finish line, and I'm wanting to dash for it, but it's like I have a cinderblock chained to my ankle! Will we EVER be logged in???

On a happy note, it was a beautiful, warm day (that's 57 degrees here in NH- no jackets and I saw many people in shorts!) and we were able to get outside! That did wonders for us all!!

Jenna,
I am so excited you 797 came in the mail. I remember how excited I was the first time as well. The paperchase is overwhelming, but it's funny almost two years later I have forgotten how intense it was. I hope the agency switch goes without a hitch and you will be LID soon. Do you know which one you are going with?

So glad it arrived! Hope that all goes well with the new agency...and that cinder block turns to dust!
