Video Consultation Scheduling for Visa Consultants
A client books a video-call slot with a counsellor, gets a calendar invite with a join link for whichever video-calling tool your team already uses, and the outcome of the call is logged straight onto the case file once it's over.
What does video consultation scheduling software do for a visa consultancy?
Video consultation scheduling is the part of VisaBOS built for consultations that happen over a video call rather than in an office — a client books a slot for an initial visa-eligibility discussion, a document review call, or a pre-departure briefing, and the counsellor running that slot is the one who confirms it. Once booked, the client receives a calendar invite for the confirmed time, and the counsellor attaches their own video-call link — Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or whichever tool your consultancy already uses — so joining works the same way any other video meeting invite does. After the call, the counsellor logs an outcome and a short summary back onto the lead or case file the slot was booked under, so the conversation becomes part of the client's record rather than something only one person remembers. This is a different slot type from our appointment booking software, which is built around clients walking into your office or branch in person — video consultation scheduling is for the growing share of first conversations, document reviews, and briefings that now happen remotely instead. It also works alongside our Google/Outlook calendar sync feature: once a video consultation is booked, it can appear on a counsellor's external calendar the same way any other VisaBOS appointment does, if sync is turned on.
Where do remote consultations actually fall apart?
A video call that only exists as a WhatsApp message agreeing on a time is a call with no record, no reminder, and no trace once it ends.
Which parts turn a video call into a scheduled, logged consultation?
Book, invite, remind, tag, log, and control access — a remote consultation handled with the same discipline as an in-person appointment.
Video Consultation Slot Booking
A distinct slot type, built for remote calls, not office visits
- ✓Counsellors publish video-consultation availability separate from in-person slots
- ✓Clients pick a time and book directly, without a back-and-forth over chat
- ✓Runs alongside in-person appointment booking as its own slot type
- ✓Purpose-tagged: eligibility discussion, document review, pre-departure briefing
Calendar Invite With a Join Link
The counsellor's own video-call link, attached to the booking
- ✓Client receives a calendar invite for the confirmed video consultation slot
- ✓Counsellor attaches their own Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams link
- ✓Whichever video-calling tool your consultancy already uses works fine
- ✓Join link travels with the confirmation message and the calendar invite
Automated Reminders for the Video Slot
Fewer no-shows for a meeting that only exists online
- ✓WhatsApp, SMS, and email reminders ahead of the scheduled call time
- ✓Reminder carries the same join link as the original confirmation
- ✓Cuts down on wasted slots where a client simply forgot the call
- ✓Same reminder infrastructure used for in-person appointment slots
Purpose-Tagged Consultation Types
Not every video call is the same kind of conversation
- ✓Tag a slot as an initial eligibility discussion, document review, or briefing
- ✓Counsellors see the purpose before joining, not just a blank time block
- ✓Reporting can separate call types instead of treating every video slot the same
- ✓Helps a multi-counsellor team split video load by consultation type
Outcome & Notes Logged to the Case File
What was discussed becomes part of the record, not a memory
- ✓Counsellor records an outcome and summary right after the call ends
- ✓Entry attaches to the same lead or case file the slot was booked under
- ✓Next team member to open the file sees what was already discussed
- ✓No separate notebook, chat thread, or personal file for call notes
Multi-Branch & Role-Based Assignment
The right counsellor, the right visibility
- ✓Video slots published per counsellor, scoped to branch or service line
- ✓Multi-branch consultancies keep video availability separate per location
- ✓Role-based access control governs who can view logged call outcomes
- ✓Fits the same permission structure already used across VisaBOS
Prefer clients to meet your team in person instead? Our appointment booking software covers office and branch visits, and the two slot types can be offered side by side from the same VisaBOS account.
How fast can you start booking video consultations?
Publish a slot once — invites, reminders, and case-file logging are ready from the first booking.
Publish Video Consultation Slots
A counsellor sets available video-consultation times and tags each by purpose — an eligibility discussion, a document review call, or a pre-departure briefing.
Client Books, Gets an Invite and a Join Link
The client picks a slot and books it. VisaBOS sends a calendar invite, and the counsellor attaches their own Zoom, Meet, or Teams link so joining works like any video meeting.
Call Happens, Outcome Lands on the Case File
Once the video consultation ends, the counsellor logs an outcome and summary directly against the lead or case record — visible to the rest of the team from that point on.
