Our Golden Ticket

We have our Golden Ticket, otherwise known as USCIS approval.
This means we SHOULD have our dossier in route to Eastern Europe. But we have one more document that is giving us trouble. In this particular EE country, one document required is a psychiatrist signed clearance that we are mentally fit to be parents. Sounds simple enough. But when you are not seeing a psychiatrist, finding one who is willing to do whatever kind of evaluation they need to do to sign this paper, is difficult, at best. I have had NO LUCK with even getting call backs from the psychiatrists that I have called. Jim has had a little more luck than that, but the only openings we have found are in late May to late June. We are searching for alternatives, but at this point, we are not finding anything.
Please pray that someone will agree to see us quickly and sign our final paper!

  2. You might also try finding a general practitioner who is comfortable signing the paper. My doctor wouldn't sign it, but my husband's doctor was... for both of us.

  3. We just got a GP to sign everything from a walk in clinic.
