I was able to schedule an appt. for a visa interview on the morning of August 8, leaving only 3 business days to get a visa. It is only supposed to take 2 business days to process a visa.... In the meantime we are going to try to get an earlier "emergency" appointment.
During the phone call for the visa appt, we were told we would need to bring Mya's unabridged birth certificate to the appt. This creates a problem for us! We applied for this in early March and were told it would take 6-8 weeks. It has now been almost 5 months, and still nothing.
They say that her registration of birth has been misplaced. We know that she was registered because we have a short form birth certificate and it has an ID number on it! They are trying to say that we need to re-register her birth, but that's not something that Brad and I can do.
There is a slight possibility of getting a visa approved without this form (we know that has happened before), but it is a form we need in the long run anyway, so it would be nice to have it sorted out now.
Anyway, it's not over yet, so keep on praying!
Mary, for the fam
Brad, Mary, Brandon, Marissa & Mya
