Questions applicants ask

Can a real offer still look incomplete?

Yes. Incomplete details do not prove fraud, but they must be clarified before payment.

Should I send original passport to an agent?

Be very careful. Verify the legal need, company identity and process before sharing originals.

Does EuroPath replace police or legal advice?

No. EuroPath gives planning guidance and checklists only.
