I'm behind in posting. It looks like we are not going to get our I-171H renewal. We talked to our senators office and tried to get a meeting with our local USCIS office. They wouldn't even meet with us. I was tired of all the back and forth emails. They won't talk to us so that's why we got the senators office involved. They came back and said we didn't get our homestudy in on time....I'm tired of fighting with them, I'm tired of it all but I guess we have to move on.

So it looks like we are going to have to start the I-800 process. We've already contacted our SW and she has started our background checks again and we sent the paperwork to get our child abuse clearances. DH had 2 besides our state so it could be a while since one is CA. I've heard it can take up to 30 days to get the clearance from there. It's been sent in so hopefully we will get it back soon. If we can hurry and get everything back we won't have to start everything over since it will be within 6 months since we did our last home study.
