Hi, the portal of the French Consulate indicates a number 0810-26-46-26 to get a live operator with a 14.50 charge. I did call, had to give my credit card number, then when asked about the status of my immigrant visa, I was told it was not the number for immigrant visa. NO other number was given.

Has anyone called the French consulate and received a decent reply about immigrant visa? What number? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

According to the page at the US embassy in Paris, it says that "there are no phone information lines for visas at the US embassy" (http://france.usembassy.gov/visas.html)

If calling is not an option, you should send a written enquiry: ParisConIV@state.gov

They normally answer within about a week and they should be able to help. It does say, however, that they might not answer if your application is not outside normal processing times.

Best of luck, or bonne chance!

thank you Dbkrantz; I have already sent e-mails and was trying to get someone by phone.

So if a person has been successful in getting the French US Consulate by phone (I read that the Belgium US Consulate was reached by phone), please let me know which number was used.

Thanks in advance.

We were unable to reach them by phone, email, or fax. Finally my fiance call the Dept. of State at 202-663-1225 and received the information about packet 3 we were looking for.

I hope this helps.

Yeah, trying to reach the Paris embassy is a waste of time. Calling DOS is the best.
