As expected, there is more unforeseen paperwork to be done.
It turns out that the judge in Russia is unhappy that Rob is "Robert Hamersma" on his Canadian passport, "Robert A. Hamersma" on his U.S. greencard, and "Robert Allan Hamersma" on our marriage certificate. It is frustrating that Rob's passport is missing his middle name, as we still have a copy of the passport application where he clearly wrote it - they just forgot to put it on. Of course, we didn't realize this would be a big deal.
We are supposed to get a letter from the police verifying that all of these names refer to the same person. I am awaiting further instruction from our caseworker, but I plan to go to the Gainesville Police Department tomorrow and beg for help until someone will sign this letter for us. It probably needs to be notarized and put on letterhead, so this could be a pain for them. We need them to be full of grace and kindness tomorrow.
PRAY PRAY PRAY! We cannot get a court date finalized until this is resolved.

(this has nothing to do with anything, but 'allan' is a cool middle name.)
