We got the call today!
My application for expedited FBI clearance was approved today. The board in Nebraska decided it was a worthy enough case. One huge step forward.
Now our Congressman is going back to USCIS (Immigration) and is requesting that the next stage in the process also be rushed. That would be the interview and dreaded test I have to take.
I love this. For the interview, they need to know that I can:
~~ “Speak proper English…simple words and phrases in ordinary usage.”
~~ “Be able to read one out of three sentences correctly to demonstrate an ability to read in English.”
Um, yeah, I think I’ve got that part covered.
The history test? Oh heck. Well, let’s see-that would be a definite no! I do not have that covered. I seriously need some help in that area. I have a book to study. Oh my word-best I get started.
Every step of the way to my becoming an American citizen, we have an amazing Congessman with awesome staff fighting on our behalf, doing everything they can to help. I can hardly wait for the day when Hailee is home, and we can take her into their office to show them the fruit of all their efforts. We are so thankful.
We’re trusting in faith that the interview comes quickly. God never ceases to amaze me. Ever!
Fantastic news - praise God !!!!
PRAISE GOD!!!!!!! What wonderful news, what a God we serve. Just remember, your God who moved mountains to hurry everything up is just as aware of the test you have to write, He will be with you on every single question… Luv Janelle
Praise our Mighty God! I am praying for you my friend - am soooo excited for you. God will stay faithful - forever! Thank you so much for the beautiful e-card you sent me. I have so much more to share. Heaps of Hugs - Miss you tons xxx M
That’s wonderful news!! You will do fine in the interview. Yeah, I think you’ve got English down…your writing is better than most American’s! Seriously.
As far as the history test…do you know exactly what they will ask you?? I’m sure it’s just basic stuff. American history is really very interesting (well, I didn’t think so when I learned it in school but now that I’m teaching it to my kids, it is). You may find yourself wanting to read more and more.
Congratulations! Now…on to the history book. Sounds like homeschool time for you, too!
Praising God with you today Adeye! I’ll pray for you during the test. He will protect you. I can not wait to hear that you are a US citizen now. Hugs to you!
AWESOME! GO GOD!
YAY! So glad to hear that step is down! One step closer! ;o) Gosh, I would have issues with the history thing and have lived here all my life.. Sorry about that part. Prayers for your brain to hold ALL the info ;o)
Well looks like you have your part to do…get cracking on that history…make it one of the homeschool lessons…skip math for now!
Looks like God is shoving those mountains out of the way! Love watching.
Yea!!! Praise the LORD…I’m so glad and continuing to pray for you all…
OK, I can’t resist…
did you have to spell the pronunciation of your name for them on the test?
Adeye,
Great news!
Why don’t you send them your blog websight and see how they judge your mastery of the English language:0) As for history, get the Schoolhouse Rock cartoons on VHS or DVD. Everything I have learned that has stuck with me came from those televised videos I watched as a kid:)
GO GIRL!
Lisa
ps-I have been meaning to ask you..do you speak with an accent?
Yippee!! Oh how I’ve been waiting for this news! Praise GOD!! Can’t wait to see that angel in your arms.
In Him,
E
WHOOP WHOOP! That’s awesome!!!
We had an amazing Congressman working hard on our behalf too…but I didn’t have a test to take! Sorry!
Praying for you, Hailee, and the rest of your family!
yay! praise God! this is awesome ….one step closer to hailee
you know what Adeye?
I’ll bet than an embarrassingly LARGE percentage of natural born American citizens couldn’t pass the history test. I’m just sayin!
WOOHOO!!!! Thank you, Jesus!!!! What awesome news!
I have totally loved watching Him write Hailee’s story. She has touched so many hearts and she doesn’t even know that. 
Yeah. If God is for us who can be against us!
Yeah!!!! I am so excited for you! One step closer. for sure!!! God is good!
Yeah. Congratulations. I guess the whole homeschool will be studying American history for awhile. When is the test?
That is wonderful news. Praise the Lord!!!
Michelle
Absolutely awesome news!!!
Oh I’m so glad. Now go study!! Haha! One sentence our of three…”your honor, I would like to present….my blog!” (I didn’t even spell sentence right!)
Hey, I wouldn’t probably even pass a citizen test, so I’m praying for you! Just wish Beijing was somewhere close to Hailee!
This is just the most wonderful news! I am overjoyed!
You know, I wonder if I could pass the history test?
Kind of like a drivers test, once you are legal to drive it is still really hard to pass teh written test!
