Slackers (I-600A)
So, we are slackers. Big time. I take full responsibility, since (let's be honest) I handled 99% of the paperwork in the adoption so far. My excuses: it cost over $800 (which we got here but were scared to part with) and expires in 18 months (please Lord let us have a referral before then) so we weren't rushing to send it off.After getting on the waitlist in late July, we have taken our sweet time in sending off our I-600A form, in which we request an additional fingerprinting session. After we are fingerprinted and cleared, we will receive a 'Favorable Determination" letter that is another step to us bringing home our baby. We can't receive a referral until we get this paperwork.
Well, at least it is done now! Will fed-exed the paperwork on October 1. Now, we wait to get a fingerprint appointment!
Yeah - it's in the mail! :) CONGRATS on getting that last little bit of paperwork done. :)

ReplyDeleteWe just sent ours off Monday and I can relate to dragging our heels too!
ReplyDeletePraying you get your appointment quickly!
ReplyDeleteCan't you renew it one time for no cost or little cost? I was thinking that is how it worked.
ReplyDeleteJennifer, I'm not sure what that process looks like. I am hoping that we won't have to deal with updating it- I would ask your case manager!!!
ReplyDeletewooooohoo!!! another step closer :-) it's actually probably a good thing that you delayed a bit... maybe now you won't have to renew your prints!
