Home Study Complete!

On March 23 I turned in what I thought was the last piece of paperwork to complete our home study, only to find out that our criminal background checks from Alabama had not come in. Very disappointed, especially after panicking on getting everything together asap!  Our social worker assured me I had not rushed around getting the last needed documents for nothing and they should be in any day.  After all, we had mailed them in weeks ago and the processing time was only 2-4 weeks.  So we waited. And waited. And waited. Finally Wednesday they arrived in our social workers hands...3 months longer than it should have taken! So our home study was mailed on Thursday morning and now we will begin waiting, yet again, for our approval from Immigration!
