My reject has returned

It came back already! My reject I-600a. So much sooner than I expected.

And not only that, they didn't actually send my entire application back and make us start over. They just sent some official letter (with some official numbers on it like 176-R) stating that I shorted them their cash, and would I please send it to them, along with the letter. Don't mind if I do.

I can't believe they would be that efficient. Surprise, surprise, surprise.

 So of course I went right from my mailbox to the post office to send it on it's way, so they could have it in their hot little hands on Monday or Tuesday, and resume passing us through Immigration.

We're back on track, baby.

Wishing you speedy processing! We made a similar mistake and had our I-600A returned to us - so frustrating!

Well, as much as I'd like to be putting that dossier together, it is kind of like labor pains. You forget how much it can hurt once it's over! Of course, now with the Hague Convention, I'm sure it's a bit MORE painful.

And I LOVE the title of your blog! I'm looking forward to getting to know you!
