After settling into my morning routine I clicked on the UPS tracking website to check the status of my returning visa application package. At 9am I was thrilled to see the notation, "out for delivery", so I thought I'd have the package before the end of the day today. My passport is flying more than me, think I could convince Delta airlines to give me the miles my passport has flown in the last 48 hours? :-)
I was doubly thrilled when the UPS envelop with my application appeared on my desk just after 10am. When I opened it I wasn't as thrilled. The San Francisco office of the visa processing company returned the original application but not the copy they required me to send, which meant I had to make another copy to send to the Washington, DC office. Not the end of the world, but an inconvenience.
In less than an hour I had the revised application and a full copy ready to go and the shipping label the San Francisco office provided me for the Washington, DC office in my hand ready to be applied to the shipping envelop. Are you following all this? I barely can!
Fortunately there is a UPS store close to my office and I popped over there at lunch and handed the kind gentleman behind the counter the envelop with the application package lovingly secured inside. Now it's in the hands of UPS...let's hope the second time is a charm and I don't get any calls tomorrow from the Washington, DC visa processing office telling me there is another hiccup in my application!
Keeping fingers crossed, but not holding my breath! :-)
