I know it took our embassy in Moscow 17 days to get back to us. The holidays have created delays all over the place. I would send an email and be patient. It might take a few weeks to hear from them.

In addition to the feedback already given you, try calling them on Jan 2nd 2013. Ghana Embassy Phone# for ACS 233-30-2741-570. Call during business hrs and ask to be transferred to Consular Section; they're pretty good answering phones.

Goodluck to you!

I would like to request a pickup date for Packet 3 & 4 for the Beneficiary at your Accra location. Please forward a date and time to the following email addresses: Your Email & His Email . Thank you.

I received a reply email within 7 hours!! I hope this helps. You can't go to the embassy without a letter. So once you receive a reply email, you can then pick it up on a Wednesday. Also I did receive a letter in the mail from the embassy here in the states two weeks later to forward it to my fiancé in Ghana. In my opinion email is more effective. :thumbs:

I do believe you will need some form of identification. I would take it just in case.
