We learned late last week from our agency that our attorney has been having problems getting Caleb's new birth certificate. It seems that an official in Petén will not process any requests for new birth certificates. Upon learning this, we've "found" two other families who are in the same boat as us...out of PGN for over a month and still no birth certificate. We guess that misery loves company!
The glimmer of hope in this is that our attorney said that he was informed late Thursday that the BC request for Caleb was finally processed and ready to go. WE HOPE SO!!!!
Most people get their BC a week or two after exiting PGN. We've been waiting over 5 weeks, so you can see why we're getting impatient.
If our attorney does indeed have the BC, then our guess would be one month until travel. Yup, right before the Thanksgiving holidays. So we're expecting jam-packed airports AND superduper expensive airline tickets. But it will all be worth it, absolutely! Heck, we'd drive to Guatemala if we had to!
Have a great week. We'll post more as we learn more.

Keith and Kris, I found your site. We are waiting for a new BC for our child too. I think my child may have been born in the same town as your child, given what you have posted. would you email me so we can discuss the BC issue? thanks, Ellen at eblharrison@yahoo.com
Thank goodness you are moving along! We got out of PGN at the end of September and with no explaination whatsoever we just got our Guatemala City BC yesterday. Maybe we will see you and your happy Caled in Guatemala!
