We had our homestudy overnighted to our state capital's city for review and approval on April 2, 2009 with hopes to have it to CIS in Atlanta by our cutoff date of April 10. 2009. Unfortunately, "the worker" was out sick and just today reviewed and approved our homestudy. Since tomorrow is our cutoff date and the state won't overnight it, we won't make our date. The reason they won't ask the state to overnight the packet is they already requested our paperwork be expedited due to our close due date. I guess they don't want to push their luck or ruin chances of requests in the future.
Our social worker suggested we have our agency call or e-mail CIS to notify them our paperwork is in the mail. Hopefully, we will still qualify for our "free" update and fingerprinting. Our agency did e-mail a request for them to accept our homestudy. They are also searching for a phone number, too.
We are still waiting to hear back. We asked the company that did our homestudy to check with the state this week. We asked several times, but they didn't want to bother the person. So, if CIS doesn't accept this, we will have wasted money ($$), time, and sanity on this "free" extension.
Fingers are still crossed that CIS will accept our homestudy one day late. They already have the rest of our paperwork (letters, copies of birth certificates, marriage license, etc) that we had to send them.
