Dear Americans in Guadeloupe,
I am seeking advice regarding where I should apply for a long-stay visa for a French Overseas Department. I am an American citizen, a retired high school English teacher from California, and have been living in the Commonwealth of Dominica since 2009. Please share your success story with me.
In 2010 I started a relationship with a wonderful French man and fellow artist, also living in Dominica at the time, who has since moved to Marie-Galante. We would like to be able to live together in Guadeloupe. I have been researching the process to apply for my long-stay visa, but I am not sure whether I need to return to the USA to make the application in Los Angeles, or whether could I complete it nearer Guadeloupe where I am presently visiting.
I am also researching companies that provide expat medical insurance. Are there any that are approved of or preferred by the French government? I appreciate any guidance you can offer.
Sincerely,
Robbi La Londe

Hi Patineuse,
If you want to apply for a long stay in France (whatever the region), you may go to the nearest French consulate/embassy of your residence that will provide you all the necessary information
hope this will help.
