some movement

I think we are either 6th or 7th. to have our dossier sent to the embassy. Maybe we will get it there by the end of January, but I think thats a big if.

Keep the faith. I was shocked to find 6 other AA families in Ust at the same time (that's just 1 region!). All of us went thru the Embassy at different times. Kaz seems to have fits and starts-never steady state and sometimes the other side of the Embassy goes fast.
