Very strange. What number do you call Uncle Buck. I called from my cell today and they picked right up.

In days past I called the number in the book and it usually took many hours over several days to get past the busy signal (used to think of it as the Immigration Lottery.)

Are you calling immigration in Belmopan or Belize City?

I have about 6-7 different numbers for immigration in Belmopan obtained from different sources, and have had about a 3% success rate on calling those numbers over the past couple years

If you have the lucky number, why not share it?

Yes, Belmopan. sure thing.
822-2611
822-3860

Please deliver 2 cold beers please to me. Thank you

822-2611 was changed to 802-0265. Tried calling that number and got no answer. The second number gave me a busy signal.
I have 4 other numbers that work just as well, if you want them.

Oh well, guess they'll get it figured out sooner or later.

If I can "call numerous times and always get an answer immediately" then 2 Belikins for you!

I'm currently in Canada, and I have frequent problems getting through to Corozal as well. Figure it's typically a BTL thing.

When I was getting my work permits and residency etc..etc... I always had trouble getting through to Belmopan from Caye Caulker, it was about a 50/50 if the phone would just ring or someone would pick up, Mondays were the worse, Fridays too....this was several years ago...also agree you should turn application in , in Belmopan, If your lucky you can get your interview the same day, ask them as they will usually want to give you a appointment, if you have your application complete, you need Belize Police report which takes time. you can get your permit in about a week going through Belmopan, if you are lucky.......

Thank you good info. You have the best info. on Permit,side job
