"The invitation is open for NGOs, for advocates, for members of Congress, for lawmakers to reach out to us if they are familiar with an American in Afghanistan who has not been in touch with us and who may want to leave."- @StateDeptSpox
For American citizens or Green Card holders (LPR) in Afghanistan, call @StateDept at (833) 741-2777 or (606) 260-4379. Or email AfghanistanACS at state dot gov
I know that none of this helps the SIV holders and our Afghan allies who are being targeted by Taliban.
I keep updating this link with any information from the US government for all categories (visa/asylum refugee/family): emilypostnews.com/p/us-governmen…
“I’m a U.S. Citizen and terrified and desperate to leave this country, which is now under the rule of the cruel Taliban,” she wrote to me in the first email
Her brother and sister in law disappeared a month ago.
“There is no information about them, if they are alive or not. So I am left here as a guardian to my nephews.”
She has American passport but needs to get her three nephews with Afghanistan passports out of the country.
The Taliban cut off internet and mobile in Kabul today. IDk the purpose but it terrified the Americans and Afghan allies who were suddenly alone in hiding and cut off from any contact.
An Aghan ally who I email with asked me to share this message:
"Hi Emily,
Pray for your safety and your pen to write the pain of the Afghan people.
Kabul and the resident's lives are in danger day by day.
See what happened today in Kabul.... (1/2)
"The internet signals were cut-off and what’s this terror.
We’re in the big worse situation in life and can’t do anything, we (me & my family) beg you and from your team to please help us to out with a safe passage."(2/2)
Well, this is from @StateDept:
Special Immigrant Visas (SIVs): For information regarding the SIV process, including who to contact for specific inquiries please visit: travel.state.gov/content/travel…
BUT
The catch is that if you are applying for a SIV and you are in Afghanistan (which is everyone) then you can't get interviewed because -- as you know-- the US shut down its embassy in Kabul.
From @state "If you would like to transfer your immigrant visa case to a U.S. embassy or consulate outside of Afghanistan that processes immigrant visas, please submit your request to the National Visa Center at NVCSIV@state.gov - including your name, date of birth & case number"
PODCAST: 'You Left Us' to be Killed by Taliban
He worked for the U.S. military in Afghanistan and needs rescue now -- Listen to his voice message for Americans in #EmilyPostsemilypostnews.com/p/podcast-you-…
The man was in the National Mission Brigade (NMB) - which is the Afghanistan special forces that our guys trained. The best of the best. He sent a voice message to special forces friends in the US this morning. (thread- 1/?)
"Hello, brothers. This is X from Afghanistan, a guy who did work with US forces in Afghanistan for the last 11 years." (2/?)
Today is one week since Biden ordered the (early) withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan and left American citizens and Afghan allies (literally) at the gate of the Kabul airport. Since then...
Americans have gone into hiding in safe houses. A few have escaped ground routes. Some are sitting on the floor at Mazar-i-Sharif airport. All of them are terrified the Taliban will kill them before the are rescued.
The Afghans who worked with for and with our military, lived on our bases, spied for our intelligence, speak fluent English and love Americans are being hunted door to door by the Taliban. They email/text American friends to beg us to save their lives.
