Anyone's agency still saying no visit trips?

I was just wondering - if your agency said no visit trips last week, are they saying it's okay to go yet?

Our agency hasn't lifted their restriction yet and I'm getting antsy.... even though it's only been a few days....

I know some agencies didn't have restrictions to travel last week - I'm just curious to hear from those who did have those restrictions.

Thanks.

Our Agency lifted their visitation restriction, the visits to doctor's offices and visits to the attorney's office for picture taking.

Are things getting back to the pre- 10/15/2006 status quo down there? What are you guys hearing from your agencies? My agency has placed a hold on visitation travel indefinitely. I need some peptobismol....

No word yet. I have tickets for 11/7 which are nonrefundable, so we are going either way!
