After a scare when I went to pick up my medical results (they closed down early - but we managed to get the results from the x-ray place next door). We flew back to the consulate and managed to get in before they locked up for the night. I will be picking up our Visa's tomorrow at 2:00!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe this is actually almost over!

Tomorrow we also have an appointment to report our daughters birth etc. Hopefully there are no glitches there!

Thanks for all the support!!!

Yay! Congratulations!

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

So we officially have Visa's in hand but no report of birth abroad approval yet. My husband didn't understand that he needed to Prove he was on US soil for 5 years. So now he has to get a letter from his employer to prove it. Hopefully once that's done they will complete her Birth Abroad and send me her passport. Until then we are not moving of course.

It may be a new rule but this is in bold red letters "Even if your child holds the nationality of a country other than the U.S., if your child has a claim to citizenship, he or she must be in possession of a valid U.S. passport to enter and exit the United States." So we have to wait for her passport which we applied for at the same time.

My husband couriered a letter from his employer today so hopefully this will be over soon.

Thanks again for all the well wishes! I'm so happy there may be light at the end of a 3 year long tunnel! lol
