Praise God!!! I prayed last night that He would please let the paperwork come soon, because I have been so nervous that it wouldn't reach me in time. After all, I was depending on both Liberty University and the FBI to expedite processes that are notorious for being VERY slow.
Well, my prayer was answered. All my paperwork arrived in the mail today. How appropriate that I should get it on Christmas Eve! Now all I have to do is get it notorized and apostilled, which I can hopefully do by next week.
In case anyone doesn't quite realize what a miracle this is, let me fill you in. Liberty University took one year to issue my diploma the first time. They say that a reissue takes at least 8-10 weeks (often longer). I called Liberty and requested three copies about three weeks ago and begged them to expedite the process. They told me it would be after the first of the year before they arrived. As for the FBI, their background checks have been known to take 16 weeks or longer (they were estimating 6 weeks on their website). I mailed in my fingerprints and request on the 15th of this month, and it only took them nine days to send back the paperwork! Wow! I guess this proves that excedingly polite letters really do get results!
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you're all being blessed as much or more than me this holiday season.
