In case you missed The View From The Top, here is the Immigration update for December 7, 2022 from Fragomen's Julia Onslow Cole.
In this show Julia provided a global visa round-up. Coming up to the festive season all of the Government departments and Consulates are experiencing many delays — it is much worse than normal due to the previous COVID delays. This is particularly so in Europe and Latin America
