This is my first time contacting Advocacy about an issue
Book an appointment with an advocacy officer. After we receive your request and will email you within 24 hours to confirm your appointment. The form asks for your information, details of your issue, your preferred contact method and appointment time, and allows you to attach documents that you want us to review. We use the information provided in the form to learn about you and understand your issue. This helps us review the situation prior to meeting with you so that we’re prepared and ready to offer appropriate advice and information.
