Hi there folks
I am Australian and my wife is french. We were married in France 8yrs in her hometown. We have since moved to Australia and lived here for 5 yrs. She has her permanent residence and holds and Australian passport. It's now time to move back to France to be closer to her mother.
After a short call to the embassy my wife explained that we can apply from here and it should all be pretty straightforward. That is, still quite a lot of paper work and all that but as long as we complete everything it should be fine.
So I am under the impression that all I need to do is achieve my level B1 french delf or equivalent, fill out the visa application and have an in person meeting in Sydney, or Perth at specific dates.
But what is unclear to me is what does the visa actually allow me to do in France. Are there certain restrictions or requirements that I must then meet once there. Is there a certain amount of money and tax I must earn and could I work in other parts of EU. Casual work full time and other considerations like that.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated to put my mind at ease. Thanks everyone 😁
