I just got off the phone with our mortgage loan counselor. We had an error in our credit report regarding the deferrment of Kyle's student loans. Nothing that changed our score drastically, but important to the 'doctor loan' criteria. So we are in the process of getting it fixed. In the meantime, we were told, we can file for an exception and still get the ball rolling. Well apparently they won't grant exceptions anymore, so we are waiting on the credit bureaus. We talked about actual rescoring, but that would cost us hundreds and hundreds of dollars. So the advice given was just to wait until May 1st, see how things pan out, and if things have changed on their own by then.
Well, not exactly what I wanted to hear, but something at least, right? But now we just wait, and hope things just take care of themselves?

Not to mention the fact that we can no longer look at a mid-May closing, we're going to be lucky to get in on time for Kyle's start date (mid-June). AND.... that means that - if we're "lucky" - we can close the first full week of June. When we're supposed to be on our graduation trip.

I don't know what to do . I don't want to cancel the trip until at least May 1st when we figure out if this is even going forward. But at the same time, the longer I wait the more money I lose (I already lose a huge chunk of it). I guess it was a stupid idea to try and go on vacation while all of this is happening... but I really felt like we needed it. And not just because I want to go, but because it was supposed to celebrate all that we worked for, and also be something for our anniversary since our honeymoon (aside from the Disney portion) was a disaster.
Who knows.
