I was so surprised when I got the mail and saw the USCIS return address. It has only been a little over 4 weeks since we sent in our I600A and a little over 1 week since our fingerprinting!! I am so relieved to have it on its way!
We celebrated at Cold Stone last night. I had been holding on to a gift card that I got for Christmas. (Thanks John and Dani!!)
So begins our countdown! (The latest on referrals is about 6 to 8 months.)
Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear. Is 65:24
Exciting stuff!! :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow!! My approval took 11 looooong weeks. Virginia is really picking up speed. That is very encouraging to know!!! (for 1-600 approvals!!)
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS!!! This is a huge huge milestone, as you know. I am so excited for your family!
YEAH! Our approval came quicker than we expected too! We have to complete a webinar next week and ours will be sent to Korea on Friday!! WHOO-HOO! I think our timing will be very close to yours!!
ReplyDeleteWAHOOOOO!!!!!! That's AMAZING!!! SO SO cool!!
ReplyDeletehow EXCITING!! Praise God!
ReplyDeleteWow that was fast! So excited for you and your beautiful family!! Love the way you celebrate! :))
ReplyDeleteHow WONDERFUL!! I am so happy for you. I LOVE Cold Stone... a great place to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteWill you get a # each month (we did for Ethiopia) or do you just get a call in 6-8 months?
What a beautiful family! Congrats on getting that dossier off, what a relief! Are you with AGCI?
ReplyDeleteBlessings on your journey!
Yay!!! Congratulations!! We love some Cold Stone too! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a really exciting milestone! I'm glad to be following your journey.
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question, most of the families I met through my blog. There are lots of bloggers in my area! There is also a Yahoo group that I joined, Adopt Korea. You could post a message on there asking if anyone lives in your area. That would be a good way to meet other families.
Exciting!! Glad to see a new visitor to our Blog. Thanks for stopping by and saying hi. I always like to have new followers, especially others on this same journey. It is encouraging for us all I think! You have a beautiful family (minus 1). By the way, love the name and the shirts. Did you guys make those on your own? I must buy some when payday comes around :) Looking forward to following your journey.
ReplyDeleteYAY!! So excited for you!
ReplyDeleteWe are with CC baltimore through baton rouge, la and were given a referral time of 9-12 months from hstk, specifically for a girl. Boys are a little faster I think.
