Oh, sorry I misread your question. You can mail the DS-230 and accompanying documents now. You don't need to wait for them to mail you anything.

Yes, I agree with Caly. Your wife can mail the DS230 now along with her civil documents. Don't forget the Cover Sheet which generated after you paid the IV Fee bill.

No Need to wait for an email. As soon as IV FEE bill shows paid in the payment portal, print the COVER SHEET or send it to your spouse so she/he can put it along with the DS230 Form and other civil documents and send it to NVC since you already sent your AOS packet.
