Ask an Immigration Expert: Individual Consultations

Practicalities

Come prepared with your questions and any supporting documents you need to explain your situation. The immigration expert will meet with attendees one-on-one on a first come, first served basis. Meaning that if you arrive and the consultant is already speaking with someone else, you can sit in the "waiting room" until it is your turn (a "take a number" system, if you will).

Our guest consultants are:

Karen Rastelli, an independent immigration expert from Into Belgium, who has been working in Belgium for over 20 years advising internationals in their immigration queries.

Massimo Maesen, a lawyer specialized in immigration from Expat Management Group dedicated to helping internationals find answers.

Chloé Dechanet from Anywr. Born and raised in France Chloé has been living in Belgium for 10 years and working as an immigration specialist since 2018. She speaks French, English, Spanish and Dutch.

No registration is required. Please come prepared with your questions and any documents that you think might be helpful in explaining your situation. As there may be people waiting after you, we foresee about 15 min per consultation.

Please note that we have had an influx of people joining the sessions recently, meaning that if we run out of time it is possible that not everyone can see the expert. That is why we open the doors at 12:30, the earlier you arrive the more likely you are to get a spot.

If you have any questions about how this event will work, feel free to send us a messsage at internationalhouse@leuven.be.
