Hello Ian, Thanks, I will take your advice and not mention our EHIC's, and see how we go.  They seem to be the problem. Regards  

Thank you for the information, I think you are right.  We will go again, and hopefully it will be a different person we see, and unless they ask I will not mention the EHIC. Regards,  

Hello sunshine 2, Thank you for responding to my questions, as you can imagine we are very new at this.  I am not sure where it was we took the E121's, but I will find out.  I was just told it was the social security office. I will definitely follow that up.  Regards   

Hello Clair, We live in Meursault, Burgundy.  And when we went to the social security, a friend of ours who is fluent in French came with us.  They said we couldn't register until our EHIC ran out in November.  Is it because the health rules have changed recently??  Where could we find out if we can register.  I have limited French, although I am learning.  With matters like this they blind me with science!!!  Oh bye the way, did I tell you that we are both retired? My husband is 65 and I am 61. Thanks for your help, very much appreciated.  

Hello Clair, Also, do you know how we go about getting a CMU. Regards  

Sorry, yes we have the EHIC not the E111.  Regards

My husband and I have just moved to France to live.  We are retired, we have got our E121's, but when we took them to the social services they said that we cannot do anything until our E111's run out, which is November, 2008.  My question is, if anyone knows, are we covered for health care until then?? If not, what do we do until then? regards
