Salam. I am Punjabi from Pakistan. Posting for a friend.
She is Afghan by family but born and raised in Pakistan. She has never been to Afghanistan.
Quick background: In Pakistan the national ID is called a CNIC. NADRA issues it. Without a CNIC you cannot keep a phone SIM, run a bank account properly, rent, study, or travel legally.
Her father got Pakistani citizenship in the 80s. NADRA rejects that paperwork now. During the recent Afghan deportation drive their family CNICs were cancelled. She has no usable identity left.
Afghanistan is not safe for her as a woman. School would stop. Life would shrink to almost nothing.
Going to a NADRA office to fix this is risky because raids happen and people get deported on the spot.
I am not asking for anything illegal. Only real paths.
Please only reply if you know something concrete. No politics. Thanks.
