So after all this time of waiting, I get my paperwork in the mail. The one I'm to send to INS.
I open it up and right away this word jumps up at me. CANADA!!! WHOA hold on, where the heck did that come from?
The paperwork has me listed as being from Canada. Are you frigging kidding me? I'm SO ANNOYED right now. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Canada, it's the fact that they've put the WRONG country. I've bent over backwards and gone out of my way, jumping through hoops for this. Why don't people pay attention to what they're doing?
I pick up the phone and call the doctors office.
Lady: Dr.........'s office, may I help you?
Me: Yes, this is Sandra, I just got my paperwork and where it says country I'm from, it says Canada.
Lady: and so?
Me: Well I'm NOT from Canada that's the problem.
Ummm hello??? Obviously I didn't call just to tell her what country I'm from. Unbelievable. So now you may ask where I'm at? Well, now we have to wait for them to RESEND more paperwork with the right country. SIGH......I seem to have developed a really bad headache all of a sudden, wonder why? Could it be the stress or the fact that no matter how hard I try there is always something messing things up for me?
Well just had to vent. Going to go take some Tylenol and sit down for a bit, help this headache go away faster.
Word of advice to those out there going through any immigration process. TAKE YOUR TIME and go through every single piece of paper and written word to make sure it's right. One more thing, don't count on others to make sure everything is done the right way, to you it's your life, but to them it's just another piece of paper going through their hands.

I totally agree with you on that one. Right now, I'm going through the process of doin all the paperwork with Hubby so that the Navy can put me in their system. It's tons and tons of paperwork and they've screwed up already. Hubby has plenty of headaches dealing with them. The second go-round with your paperwok should be good to go, since they knocked their mistakes out of the way the first time. (Fingers crossed) Then again it is just a dumb piece of paper to them. Watch, you'll be from Holland next time. lol. :o)

Sorry your having such a hard time. I lost my little boys ss card & needed a new one & I had to have proof of course to get it so I took his birth cert. Well not good enough they said that doesn't prove he's "alive". Things will get better ok just take a deep breath & scream your guts out till you get your way!!!! Thats what I do. It works!! LOL!:o)
Oh now. Sorry to hear that there is yet again a mess-up! I have heard that the whole immigratio process is long and painful!
Mystik, hope it gets done soon, the military is very annoying when it comes to paperwork. One of the worst places for us to deal with is the MPF, Military Pay and Finance. Holy moly, talk about headaches there :)
Court, I can't believe the birth certificate wasn't proof enough for them. LOL It's unbelievable how pathetic they can be with things like that.
Mel, thank you ;) Yeah it is and it's a lot of money too. I just can't wait to put this all behind me.
