Urgent - French long stay - imminent refusal re: School reg

Hi all,


First time posting here, so appreciate any help.


We last week applied as a family for the French Long Stay Visa at TLS.

We followed all check list docs and TLS sent them all off.


Question: We have researched and were told that to get a French state school place, we need to be in France and apply at the town hall. This is quite worrying as we only have 10 days and it seems impossible to get this.


Today we received a message to say the below:


"- For the child : a registration letter from the school in France

***Failure to provide the requested documents within the 10 following days will lead to a visa refusal***DJ"
