The mail in Afghanistan is super unreliable. NVC sent out package to the US embassy in kabul afghanistan about 10 days ago. I am assuming they will mail or have already mailed out the package to the beneficiary.

Can I email the Consular and kindly request that

A) if documents were already mailed out can they also email them to an email address provided in the email

B) if documents or package has not been mailed out, can they email them instead

Is this possible or would it further complicate things for them?

If it is possible what information should be provided to them when sending an email?

Please help, thanks

Don't worry about the package that NVC send to the embassy.. The embassy will hold on to that for the interview with all the information that you submitted. They will e-mail you the interview letter and all the forms that you need to bring with you for the interview.... So there is nothing to worry about and you don't have to contact the embassy ... That's what they do.. there is no mailing system in Afghanistan...

Salam. I wish you provided your email address when your case was still with NVC, but if you email them, they will update the system and send you package 3.5 via email also. But make sure to email them again if you didn't hear anything in 3-4 days. Good luck
