Yesterday, I was worried about one thing. We still didn’t have the fingerprint results for Daniel (the background check). So the plan was that he would go get reprinted in the next week or so. A minor set back, but very manageable.
And we were both going to have our individual home study interviews and our home tour yesterday evening – our home study was going so smoothly…
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
So, we did have the home tour last night, although our social worker did have to cancel both of our individual interviews. She did say that she never cancels a home tour, because, even though you don’t have to clean your house, most people do. And if you know me, you know that I did. The home tour was very easy and fast. We got extra “points” (metaphoric points) for having a carbon monoxide detector and a fire extinguisher. She said everything looked great, especially with our house decorated for Christmas!
Today, I geared up to tackle the last two major things for the home study: the fingerprints and the medical forms. Well, the fingerprint/background check was much easier than I thought it would be. His completed forms came in the mail today - no re-fingerprinting necessary. That was easy! But then when I called to get an appointment for a physical at my doctor’s office, I was surprised and disappointed when they told me that the first appointment was January 29th. I got a little upset. I don’t want something as simple as a physical examination to set us back a few months. We are so close to having our home study completed. The home study (which includes those medical forms) and other paperwork will be sent to the immigration office so that they can open a file for us. And the goal is to get these sent in before the end of the year.
But I think we have a Plan B… I’ll know this weekend hopefully!
