I received an email from the embassy yesterday. Someone at that very moment was working on her file. Then they stopped.
My fingerprints aren't...on...file.
We had our initial fingerprinting done almost 18 months ago. They expired a year later, so we had them redone. They have his prints. They don't have mine.
If you haven't had your fingerprinting done recently, you might not know that there isn't ink or paper involved in the procedure anymore. It's all computerized. Digital. Instantly on file.
They can't find mine.
We have our updated I-171H. For the non-adoption speakers it's a document from Homeland Security, US Citizenship and Immigration. It not only confirms our fingerprints were done, it gives us a new 'expiration' date for them.
My heart sank. My thoughts started going crazy. I instantly emailed the embassy back with a copy of our I-171H. They answer emails 'in the order they were received'...
I don't want to wait. All I've done is wait.
It's been over 18 months since our paperwork arrived there.
This needs to be done.
I need her home.
The Christmas miracle I've been praying for. It's not going to happen. Please God. Please have her home by her birthday.
