Categories: Immigration Help
Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) offers several ways to contact them for visa and immigration questions.
If you are within Canada, you can call the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) call centre for immigration and visa questions. The call centre number is 1-888-242-2100. (Please note, this number will likely only work within Canada.)
You can find more information at the CIC Call Centre website.
CIC encourages users to make use of the website as much as possible to avoid long wait-times at the call centre.
If you are outside of Canada, you can usually call your local Canadian visa office. Canada has High Comissions, Embassies and Consulates worldwide who can provide some information. You can find the nearest Canadian Visa Office to you at the CIC website: http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/information/offices/apply-where.asp
In many cases, your question can can also be answered by a Canadian immigration consultant or lawyer. If you wish, you can also speak to a registered Canadian immigration consultant or lawyer. Qualified counsel can help advise you of your options and answer your immigration questions.

Please note that immigration consultants and lawyers work for private companies and will almost always charge a fee for immigration advice.
