Ridiculous Red Tape

Just when I thought everything was going smoothly we get caught in a snafu of govt. red tape. We got a letter saying that something was wrong with our homestudy and we couldn't be approved until changes were made. Our Social Worker tried to find out what the problem was, but immigration wouldn't release the info. to her until we sent in a privacy consent form. We scanned and emailed our consent form in, but they didn't like that one. So Carol had to come out to our house so that I could sign a new consent form to scan and email to them. It turns out that there was a sentence that they didn't like and needed to change about when our post placement visits would be occurring. This just strikes me as a bit petty to make us go to all that trouble over a couple sentences. Seems like their time could be better spent in other ways. Oh well! I'm glad it was an easy fix and hopefully in a few days we'll officially be approved. That will be a relief.
