Still no sign of my homestudy... apparently, it wasn't going to done over the weekend. Bummer. The new possible finish date is the end of this week. Yes, another week of mentally counting days and adding up weeks.
Right now my biggest fear is that I won't get everything done in time. Every day I click off another day as a day less that I can wait for someone to push the paper through. I start picturing USCIS as the movie Office Space... they're just about to print out my immigration files, but the "damn printer" gets a paper jam. Everyone then procedes to beat it with baseball bats.
umm... yah. So, currently, it takes 4 to 6 weeks get the I-171H approval, after fingerprints are taken. The definitive word on whether or not WA state still takes walk-ins for fingerprints is not out there. The only people I've heard from about it are either looking for information or already had their fingerprints taken before the big "NO". So add on another two weeks for that. This puts me somewhere around the first week of March. Then everything has to certified. I'll be driving to the capital to get this done, hopefully in one day. Then it all has to sent to the Embassy in California. Normally, this is two weeks... but what happens if hundreds of these are coming in at once? Can I make it before April 1? Because even with everything done, it still needs to "presented", transmitted and translated in China... my God, why did I quit smoking?!
As part of my retail therapy, I bought some Winnie the Pooh bath supplies. They were on sale -under $2 each - and how old can soap get?

Best of luck for getting everything done in time. I know how nerve-wracking it was to put all the paperwork together, but with that deadline in place it must be even more so.
Just remember to breath. ;)
Aye! I feel for ya. Take a long, hot bath and use the $*(# soap :0)
