I have, finally, received confirmation from Immigration that they are ready to grant me permission to stay here. It has only been seven months of angst!
I contacted my cousin, Viridiana, at Immigration, who said “they” sent me notification in December, that everything was ready. Needless to say, I never received it, so Viri asked them to send it again. Even better, Viri sent it to me via WhatsApp. I printed the letter, have all of the copies of all of, well, everything, and will, once again, head down to the Office of Immigration, and try to finish this. I will let you know how it goes. When it goes.
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone. Hope you are enjoying it with your true love.
