CAIRO VISA OFFICE

[Amattullah]

i've been calling the embassy for a week or so & i can't reach any representative to speak with, is there any number other than the one on their site ? how do you reach them ?

I have never seen them answer any calls, whenever I called the front desk lady would answer and she doesnt transfer the call. She always said sorry maam but they dont take any calls send them email.. It is very annoying

.. if you even want to visit the visa office they have to give you an appointment and that is only if they need you to come... they just give me headache.. contacting them is frustrating.. ..
I don't know about anyone else but that is my experience..and of course I am talking abt the visa office, not the embassy as a whole..

But I really hope you contact them soon Lily.. and while you are trying to get hold of them,, u should also send them email.

Good luck..

The Canadian Embassy in Cairo was supposed to be a representation of Canada. The last time I was there the security was telling people what forms to fill and was letting people in or out (only if they have the complete package). If you do not have all the forms they won't let you in!! Hell.... I demanded to see the ambassador so they let me in. A security is only for security!! Once, inside the embassy you won't be happy!
They are implementing the Canadian system totally wrong! Here in Canada if they accept only computer filled forms there has to be computers so when you get stuck or can not fill something you can have some help! Besides they can not only have 2hours to answer questions! Not that the Canadian system is the best!
If the Canadian embassy in Cairo is under staffed they need to hire more.
