Hey guys, I emailed the Embasy and they told me that a call in letter was mailed to applicant on July 27.   What is a call in letter, did they mailed it to me in the U.S, or my wife in GH, and will the letter have the interview date?  Thank you. 

 I received a letter on July 20th, 2017 dated July 5th, 2017 from the Embassy instructing my husband to pick up his appointment package on ANY Wednesday to schedule an interview for the reaffirmed petition.  It seems that the Embassy mails the letter to an office in the USA and then that office mails it to the Petitioner.  The envelope was postmarked from Washington, DC zip code and the US Embassy in Ghana showed as the return address.  It seems that the letters are forwarded from Ghana to the USA and mailed from some office in Washington, D.C.

Oh cool.  I've actually read online that We don't have to wait omfor the letter.  We can print the email I received from the Embasy and take it to there to pickup the interview package.  I guess some people have done that.  Any truth to that?

No that will not work.  The Embassy wants to see a copy of the actual letter.  Your spouse can scan it and you can print it out.  That is what my husband did.  If you scroll through this thread, @#Gh79#, tried to just show the email at the Embassy and that was not sufficient.

Can someone post the email address to the consular section please, it seems the one ☝🏾 I have doesn't work, because the embassy hasn't replied my email. Thanks

Hello, this is the email that I use.  I typically get a reply within days , latest a week.  

(ivaccra@state.gov).   I think this whole email thing requires a lot of luck.   I'm not sure why they reply me so quickly but don't reply so many other people.    But one thing I always do whenever I send them an email is include an attachment.  I always include a screenshot of something.  So maybe the attachment emails are sent to a special server that is reviewed quicker than emails with just words.    Just maybe.

Reaffirmed February 8.

 

received. By Embasy April 26. 

 

Call in letter sent July 27.       So call in letter after 5 months of being reaffirmed or 3 months after the Embasy received it.
