Contacting CIC Call Centre from Abroad

[AmericaninQuebec]

Anyone any luck. I am stuck on the same boat since 08/2011. When I try a three way call, the recording throws me off saying that they cannot transfer the call.

Any advise will help. Thank you in advance!

Even if calling from within Canada if there are too many people already waiting you will hear a recording saying that they are busy and to call again later, then it will automatically hang up. All you can do is keep calling, or wait and try your call again at another time if that's the message that you're getting. Eventually you will get through, and as someone as stated already there is usually a wait of 2 to 10 minutes to talk to someone.
