Well, I'm a bit frustrated if you can't tell. I have been working SO hard on making sure I have all my shit in line for this whole Spain thing. I'm about to pull my hair out & scream as it is, but I just keep getting more shit to worry about. I'm f*%king frustrated!!
So, in order to apply for this program (in November of 2010), I had to have an FBI background check. No big deal, I understand. I was told this background check would suffice when I apply for my Visa along with a medical clearance I received from my doctor at the same time. Well, now that I have my letter saying I have been hired, etc, the next step is to start the Visa application. Well, I need to make sure I have all my documentation in order to apply. I'll be coming from 3 states away, it's not like I can just run home real quick & grab something if I forget it. Well, apparently I CANNOT use the original FBI background check OR medical clearance. I must have them dated within 3 months of applying for my Visa. Well, that's going to take 4 to 6 weeks in itself to apply for!! I would have to wait for that & THEN get it approved by the Apostille (whatever the fuck that is) before I can even go apply for my Visa. THEN, I have to wait another 4 to 6 weeks to get my Visa done... If you're keeping track, that's about 3 months if it takes the full time expected... I am supposed to leave this country in 3 months!! I can't book my flight to Spain until I have Visa in hand. This shit is getting so ridiculous, it's to the point that I am about to give the fuck up & say fuck it. I don't want to deal with this. I knew it would be a lengthy process, but I was not prepared for this. It is taking all I have not to break down in tears at work right now. This fucking sucks. I apologize for the language. It's just how damn frustrated I am. I don't know what to do & the worst thing is... NO ONE is replying to my e-mails or calls to answer my questions. I'm seriously ready to give up.
