Everything is at US Asian Affairs, except the 171-H from from Immigration. They used to be able to send everything to China without that form,but I guess it has changed. It was 2 weeks ago that I walked the form into Immigration in downtown LA. Helen and Juanita work in the special Orphan Petition Unit. Helen told me 4-6 weeks, but I've been down their twice and each time it was not crowded at all. In fact I only waited 15 minutes the first time, 5 the second. How amazing is that! I keep hoping that they may process the form faster. We did our FBI fingerprints before Christmas, so all they really need to do is read thru the homestudy.
I'll start bugging them in a week. I'm told that if you call them, and get them at the right time, they will let you know when your papers are ready and you can go and pick them up...saving a few days in the outgoing mail bin.
Aiming for the March 5 cut off!
