Ok, so I finally was able to get the embassy on the phone to ask them- "um, what's up with this whole "not having the right paperwork" thing"... I thought I had it right. After talking to her for like 15 minutes and literally reading the letters I had sent in the application, it turns out, she isn't sure why it didn't process, it sounds like I submitted everything correctly. So she told me to send it back in. Well... to be sure this past week I contacted both the head of the churches in NZ and my personal church (Shore Grace) in NZ and we added some extra information JUST to be sure.
So, it goes out via FED-EX tomorrow morning, should be there by Wednesday and back to me APPROVED within the next 14 business days.
I know God's got this, but ALL PRAYERS ARE APPRECIATED!
