I keep hearing from online friends how their Supplement 3 has been approved within a few days of landing on their agent's desk. Ours has been there over two weeks. At the risk of appearing impatient (me?) and at the risk of possibly upsetting our agent, I called today. She wasn't at her desk but did call me back a few hours later. She was very nice.
After explaining the situation she agreed that our case should have been approved by now. She looked up the details on her computer while I was on the line. No, we don't have our approval yet, but at least we have some idea of why not.
Our original adoption file from The Little Princesses has to be joined up with the Supplement 3 in order to approve the change to allow us to adopt another child. Our agent did her job and requested our original file. Usually it arrives within a few days, she approves it and everyone is happy. What she discovered is that for some unknown reason someone cancelled her request for our original file. What? That is just the way we roll, folks. Our history with USCIS, in their words from last time around is one of "not typical" in the way they normally do things.
She has requested the original file AGAIN, this time with the request to expedite it. She promised to involved a supervisor if the file doesn't arrive quickly. So.... hopefully this means we are back on track and moving again.
Praying it goes quickly. So glad you called them to check on it. I am sure you are too.
