Our very LAST home study visit is this coming Monday! This is the visit where she will walk through our house, see how we interact with our kids, and get any remaining paperwork she may not have yet. Once the last visit is complete, our social worker can finish writing our home study. Once she receives our state clearances she can send the home study off for approval and then we can send it to our placing agency!
The house is pretty much ready for the walk through. We need to straighten up Craig's office (it's a wreck) and I'll do a vacuum/sweep again before she comes. Other than that, I'm not stressing over this!
Please join us in praying that our state clearances come back soon. Our social worker sent them the letter from our doctor asking for an expedited process, so hopefully that will speed things along.
Once the home study is complete we can file with USCIS. This is the part that will probably take the longest. I've heard it takes anywhere from 1-3 months, but the norm right now is 3. Obviously we're hoping for 1. :)
Once the home study is done we can also apply for some grants to help us with funding.
This is a big milestone in the adoption process that will hopefully be finished shortly!! Yay!
