What a week!

Most of this week was spent dealing with USCIS and the National Visa Center. Monday the National Visa Center said they would search for our paperwork which FedEx delivered on the 11th. By Wednesday Larry was tired of being told "call back tomorrow" so he kicked it up a notch and Layla committed to search for the overnight envelope. She called back in a few hours to say they found the paperwork. We were so relieved the issue was resolved…or so we thought. Since we did not receive a confirmation email Larry called them on Friday. Layla said the paperwork they found turned out to be someone else’s.

Wednesday morning we emailed (you cannot call) Memphis USCIS to ask they resend our paperwork to the National Visa Center (this was before we received Layla’s call they found the paperwork which later turned out to be incorrect). Memphis USCIS responded that the National Visa Center probably would find the paperwork or were unaware they had processed it already. Does this make sense to anyone...uh NO. Memphis USCIS stopped responding to our emails asking they resend the paperwork. So Friday Larry went to the local USCIS and explained the situation. They called the Memphis USCIS and the paperwork was resent to the National Visa Center.

So we are leaving Tuesday and trusting God will take care of this issue.
