Well, not the news we were hoping for...but not really "bad" news either. Our agency emailed us today saying that they received an update from our attorney that our case had a notation "proxima semana" on it. That means we will get out of Family Court next week (I believe that would be THIS week since they were updated late last week). Of course that is in "Guatemalan" time. :) They will then try to get our file into PGN asap. Our agency is hoping to have us EXIT Family Court and get IN PGN in the next 10 days. If it is really 10 days then we will only have 7 weeks to get through PGN by year end. If we're IN this week then we'll have 8 weeks before year end. This means there is only a VERY SLIM chance we will be OUT by year end. Even one easy previo (kick out) will end any chance whatsoever of finishing in time. And you ususally get one previo. Even the people with no previos thus far are at 7 weeks 4 days etc. I'm trying to be hopeful, but it's an unrealistic hope I'm afraid. I guess we just keep marching on and keep hoping that we get grandfathered under the old system.
For those confused, getting OUT of PGN means Natalie is legally ours under Guatemalan law (though she will not be allowed in the U.S. until her Guat birth certificate, Guat Passport get issued, and the U.S. Embassy meets with us and issues her Visa).
