We have hit a speed bump. It seems that the state of Georgia has a huge back log on child abuse clearance requests. That being said, we have been waiting for two weeks just to get a letter saying they are back logged and no longer do the clearances for private adoptions. :( I guess I'll have to revert to "squeaky wheel" mode. I hate to nag, but sometimes it's the only way to get someone in a government position to do something.
We've had all the other clearances come back last month and we're waiting on GA so we can finish our homestudy. That's it. So, if you pray, please pray for the release of that letter so we can move on and send our dossier on to Thailand.
Thanks, my friends!
With a letter like that, will the agency allow you to skip that state?
ReplyDeleteYes, we just need to have some kind of acknowledgment that we tried to clear that state. If the agency sees somewhere in the paperwork that we've lived somewhere and haven't had it checked or have something showing that the place doesn't have one, the whole enchilada will be returned to us. Do over. I heard from Rob and I think the letter may be sent out today. I'll keep everyone updated.
ReplyDeleteThe letter was e-mailed to us this afternoon, so we are now ready to move on! Yay! Thank you, Jesus! :D
