CIC at Emigration show
 
Hi all,

We're planning on attending the emigration show in Coventry. This might seem like a daft question but how does one go about speaking to the CIC peeps. Is it a free for all, do you book a slot with them or is it like a meat counter and you take a ticket?

Thanks,

Mandi.

Great! :( Thanks Stu.

To be honest we're there for a bit of networking but wouldn't mind a wee chat with CIC.

Hi,

We queued up at the Emigrate Show to ask a specific question. The CIC officers were very helpful.

It took us about an hour to get to the front of the queue. It was interesting to hear that the officers often recognised people's cases when they were asked questions.

I think it's your only opportunity to see someone to ask questions.

We also queued up to ask the CIC officer Questions, however they cannot answer any Medical questions, so I came away disapointed.

Also, the following Provinces did not have a stales there: Nova Scotia, Qubec, Manitoba, Northern Territories, Saskaktuan. The fact that were heading for NS mad the show a bit of a diapointment.
