Well, it seemed as though things were going along "swimmingly"... we've been running around like crazy for the last several weeks ordering passports, getting fingerprinted, ordering marriage and birth certificates, writing checks, etc. Then when I faxed all our copies to the dossier consultant she found all sorts of problems with them. The most notable being that the medical evaluation report my doctor signed included a dreaded "abnormal." Damn. What this means is that although I have already made 6, yes 6!!! visits to this stupid doctor's office to get him to fill out all these forms correctly with no white out and all the spaces filled in... the form is completely useless. I'm going to have to go be tested again. This will mean at least another 3 visits to the doctor's office and probably another 2 weeks of time. Frustrating. Also, the DC (dossier consultant) pointed out to me that the file numbers on the background check and the county clerk statement that no files exist do not match. Thus creating more driving around chasing papers that everyone knows and admits do not exist. So like I said frustrated.

On the positive side I did receive my employment verification form from the firm today... they have been really great!! Not like Bobby's work who has been a total pain in the a**. They kept telling us that what we wanted them to put in the letter was impossible and illegal. I love that one. I really had to hold back from telling him that I work for one of the largest law firms in the state and they had absolutely no problems putting the language I requested.

I was really hoping to have all our documentation complete by this Sunday when the SW comes. They have promised me that once all our docs are together we can have a rough draft of our homestudy in 7-10 days!!!
