Legal Living in France

By Melissa Schulz

It took me six months to figure out the appropriate steps to take to live in France legally. The options are: finding a French employer who will arrange a visa, marrying a French citizen, joining the Foreign Legion, or becoming a student. The last option seemed to be the easiest and less emotionally exhausting.

All you have to do is sign up at one of the French for foreigners schools in Paris recognized by the French government (below), present your registration card at the French consulate in your home state, and get your student visa. All the schools offer programs to suit your level and needs, and some offer aid with the paperwork and housing. Request catalogues from each school and review them carefully before making a decision. (The Sorbonne is the most popular and least personal; it is also least expensive.)
After deciding on the school, you can register by phone, email, or fax. If you are in France, go directly to the school and preregister, then obtain your visa back in America. You must sign up for at least 20 hours of French a week to apply for a visa. Sign up for one year if you want a long-term student visa. Depending upon the school, you may have the option of making payments instead of paying all fees at once.

The next step is to go to the French consulate in your state of residence with all the necessary papers. The documents you will need vary from state to state, so check your local consulate web site.

Once you have your Carte de Sejour and you are legal you can open a bank account, get a mobile phone, and find part-time employment more easily. Try to start the process at least two months in advance of your departure. The peace of mind is worth the pain.
