In addition to completing this paperwork, we need to have a completed home study. To have a completed home study we need to have our 3 appointments with the social worker and complete a bunch of paperwork (This will include duplicates to the list above like reference letters, medical reviews, police clearance, certified copies of certificates/licenses). We will get that paperwork list on the 28th!! We will then need to turn in our completed home study to the Immigration office and wait for our Favorable Determination Letter (FDL) - THEN WE GET A PLACE ON THE WAITING LIST!!
