I600A sent early....will it work?

After the home study the next step is to apply for an I-600A which is the application for Advance Processing of Orphan Petition.  This is suppose to be sent along with some identification documents and the completed home study.  They then assign you a case number and send you appointments for FBI fingerprinting at your local USCIS office (both of which are 45 minutes away)

We do not have a completed home study report yet and probably won't until close to the end of May which then will not allow time for JonJon and Ooney to get fingerprinted before they leave for Korea so here is what I am attempting to do.

I have sent in our application with a cover letter explaining the situations about the boys returning to Korea for the summer along with everything but the home study.  I state that the home study would follow ASAP in late May or early June and I ask them if they would please send the boys for their biometrics appointments before they leave.....please pray this works. 

I know this is a long shot and I understand I may need to wait....but I don't want too.  I know I'm in for such a long wait as it is after HSTK I want to do what I can now to just get to that point.

A very nice woman at the USCIS department sugguested I try this.  What will happen is they will get my documents and must assign it a case number.  After that it would really just sit until they get all the paperwork but with the case number I am then allowed to call the adoption department and petition them to print the boys and hold the prints until the home study follow.

So we will see what happens.  I know God has a special little boy out there for me and if there is a delay it was meant to be so that I was match with the little guy He wanted me to mother, but my mamma's heart wants to do what it can now to move things along as fast as I can because I really feel that a 3 month delay on top of an already 24 month wait will hurt a little.
