The Law Might Be On Our Side - New Hope!!!

We just e-mailed this to the U.S. Embassy. Another adoptive family who is stuck in the exact same mess as we are may have made the discovery of the year:

We have become aware that there may be a solution to this dilemma. We are asking the US Government to allow us to forego getting a new BC, and to allow us to use the original bc, and we could get a guatemalan passoport in baby's birth name, and the US Visa in baby's birth name, and then we would re-adopt in the US and change baby's name in the US. There is a provision in the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. Section 1202(b)) that permits us to use "other satisfactory evidence" when a document is unobtainable. Documents constitute "other satisfactory evidence" if they establish the fact that the unobtainable document would prove if the unobtainable document were obtainable. So the unobtainable document is the new BC -- the new BC would prove the baby's birth data, and that we are his parents. Thus, the "other satisfactory evidence" would include the original BC, which proves the baby's birth data, the PGN decree, and the Protocolo. These two documents prove we are baby's parents. So these 3 documents constitute "other satisfactory evidence" that prove the baby's birth data and that we are the baby's parents.
We look forward to a quick response from you. After waiting 9 weeks since exiting PGN, we are understandably impatient. Thank you again for your time.

Keep your fingers crossed!!!!!!
