We operate a "Gateway Interview" process where you will initially have a short discussion with an adviser who will obtain basic details about your enquiry or problem.

Depending on the urgency and complexity of your enquiry you may :

  • be given an appointment to return at a later date, or
  • be referred to a Bureau Specialist or another organisation better placed to help you ,or
  • be dealt with at this first interview

This process allows us to help more people who will have a shorter wait to see an adviser.
