Anyone get PA today?

I am so stressed out over this PA....this is all that we are waiting for to go into PGN. It will be 9 weeks since DNA was done tomorrow and 7 since the results!

I spoke to my congressman's office the 24th of October and they still have not heard anything back from the Embassy. I know that they sent another e-mail on Monday as well!!

I can't stand this wait- by far this has been the hardest yet!

Sorry- thanks for letting me vent- I am just having a down day today!

Melissa

Hi. I heard that on Monday the Embassy was working on DNA rcv'd 9/13. Do you know what date yours was rcv'd? I know ours was notarized at Labcorp on 9/13 and rcv'd at Embassy on 9/18, so we're hoping for some news next week.

Hi,

I am on the same boat as you are. We are going into our 7th week for PA, and its just driving me crazy. Every time I open our Email I pray that it is in there. I thought it was just us! I hope we both here something this week.

You know what is also bothering me? When we're all finally released, will PGN be overwhelmed by this huge backlog? It's just galling that after months of hearing about PGN being so inefficient and illogical, it's the US gov't who is causing us the biggest problem. Let's hope PGN has used this slow time to get some new systems in place....
