You know what hurts more than getting ghosted by a lover? Getting ghosted by a consulate. Here is my extremely fun process of getting a French visa to live in Paris (sarcasm) - yes, I'm living in Paris for the next few months!
Shut Up and Go (articles about France) → https://shutupandgo.travel/category/locations/europe/france/
**PART ONE | IN THE UNITED STATES
0:25 Why I applied for the Talent Visa / Passeports Talents
1:05 Going to my appointment at the French Consulate of Los Angeles
4:00 Going back to the French Consulate of Los Angeles to get my visa
**4:54 PART TWO | IN FRANCE
4:55 Trying to make an appointment and figure out where to go while in Paris
7:43 The documents you need
8:44 Going to La Préfecture de Paris for your appointment
11:20 Getting the official email response
12:15 Going back to La Préfecture de Paris without and appointment
13:00 What happens when I finally make it to the right office
14:10 Using the Talent Passport
14:18 Final Thoughts of applying and obtaining your French visa
Where I went to get my birth certificate translated in Paris → tradzine.com
** The websites I mentioned in terms of Les Passeports Talents/Talent Passports (good luck)
La Préfecture → https://www.prefecturedepolice.interieur.gouv.fr/Demarches/Particulier/Ressortissants-etrangers/Ressortissants-etrangers/Les-passeports-talents#ancre-0-0
Service Public → https://www.service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F16922
Accueil Étrangers → http://accueil-etrangers.gouv.fr/demande-de-titre-de-sejour/vous-etes-ressortissant-e-non-europeen-ne/vous-etes-ressortissant-e-de-pays-tiers-non-algerien-ne/vous-venez-d-arriver-en-france-avec-un-visa-de-long-sejour-vls/vous-demandez-une-carte-de-sejour-pluriannuelle-passeport-talent/article/etrangers-ayant-une-renommee-nationale-ou-internationale-domaine-scientifique
**Just need to mention that the process for applying for a student visa is vastly different and most likely requires going through Campus France. There is no “proving yourself” or much back-and-forth with a consulate or La Préfecture. I studied abroad in Paris for an academic year in 2011-2012, and the entire visa process was not nearly as complicated. I visited the consulate in the USA once, and my passport was sent back to me via mail. Upon arrival, I do remember having to schedule an appointment at the OFII (Office Français de l’Immigration et de l’Intégration), where you will undergo a medical physical (It was not like an American physical...I remember the French doctor asked if I read and I was like…umm?).
