Another week

We got the news on Friday (vietnam time) that a decision would not be made on Julia's visa until next week. We are very disappointed with the news. 2 of the 5 families in our group got their visas preapproved on Friday, and they were able to get their visas issued on the same day, so if our file is approved next week, then the visa will probably be obtained the same day, so that's good news.

I talked with the officer in charge and she assured me that our case was getting attention and that we will hear something in the wednesday to thursday timeline.

We are very disappointed as we just want to get everyone back together at this point. Hopefully next week we will get some better news.

Thanks for checking in.

Hey Doug and Barbie -- I hadn't been keeping up with the blog over the holidays - we ventured back home to Indiana. I just checked today thinking you would all be home... I was sorry to find I was wrong. It looks at least like it will be soon though. We're hoping for good news for you very soon, and for Julia to see her real home.
