some much awaited good news
Wow, it looks like my dad’s passport is all processed now. It’ll still take time, as they have to clear the schedules for an INS agent to travel with him, as well as coordinate with the Korean government to have someone that’ll meet them and/or fly with them, and buy the plane tickets, of course. I don’t know what the process of getting the funds for the plane ticket purchase is, so who knows how long that will take. But this makes me very optimistic.
My dad was told by the INS people that his passport was done fast because the Korean government is cooperating with them and asking them to speed things up, so at least my dad can feel good that the country he is being deported to is tyring to be as good to him as possible.
