Hi all,

Is anyone aware if the procedure has changed recently for getting the M visa? The website clearly lays out how freelance journalists are welcome to apply, and says that only 5% are denied the visa. My husband works for one of the top radio stations in France, but they don’t give work contracts to any of their foreign correspondents. He had his interview today and the attaché made him sound like he had little chance of getting the visa without the contract. Can anyone assist? We are going over anyway with our son, since I have accepted a teaching job. TIA
