Coming down the home stretch

Our homestudy is complete! Yeah! It has been reviewed by our IA caseworker, approved and sent to USCIS by our local caseworker. We are sending off our FBI print cards so we will be ready to finalize our dossier when the clearance comes back. We have all our other documents in hand waiting to be notarized and apostilled. The papers provided by our local agency came notarized and we have already had them certified since that notary was from Baltimore County. We will have the rest notarized by a Howard County notary so Wayne can take them to work to be certified. We have been learning all sorts of fun legal terms. All the documents have to be notarized, then the notary has to be certified by the Clerk of the Court of the county they reside in. After the documents are certified they then have to go to the Secretary of State's Office to be apostilled (certifying the certification basically). Never a dull moment!
