221g document follow-up, am I overthinking this?

[bobobobobo 31]

Hi all,

I sent follow-up documents around two weeks ago to the consulate section, using the mail carrier that was approved by the US consulate (Canada post). Today I found out you can send it via the courier service that they provided, and I've only updated my status in the ais.usvisainfo site today to "Consulate section has requested more documents.", and now my current status is "Send Documents", something I've already done.

 

Will this incur a delay and will they even accept it if I don't send it via the courier service? 

 

Thank you in advance

I assume the interview was at Montreal, since you mention Canada post?  Your VJ profile indicates Indonesia, though.

Yes i'm an indonesian by nationality but I've been staying and living in Canada for a good while now.

You can send your documents with any courier however it would be at your own expense. 

 

If you want to confirm that your documents have been received you can call Clipper Ship Supply Inc (514) 937-9561. They're the 3rd party sorting facility where the documents are sent to. Just give them your tracking number to confirm over the phone that it's been sent to the embassy.
