IMPACT – MEDIUM
What is the change? Israeli government offices will be closed Sept. 20-23 and Oct.4-14 as the country celebrates the holidays of Rosh Hashanah (New Year) and Sukkoth.
What does the change mean? Applicants should expect delays in late September and October.
BAL Analysis: Employers should anticipate delays and submit applications before the holidays if possible. Israeli consular posts abroad will also suspend operations or operate on significantly reduced schedules. Overseas applicants should contact their relevant Israeli consulate for specific holiday schedules.
