We have been resident in France for 6 years but have only just joined the forum and have questions regarding application process. 1: regarding “proof of the date we moved to France”. Examples given do not appear to make sense. The “ certificate of ownership” proves only the date we bought the property, not that we have lived there. The “ home insurance contract “ only shows that we live there now.....or do they want copies of the contract for the last 5 years? 2: regarding “ proof of resources”, do they want a copy of the French tax notice for each of the last 5 years? Or do they want a copy of our French or British bank statements? We are retired and all our income (pensions,etc.) originates in the U.K. and we transfer money as and when we need it 3: what is a “recent health insurance attestation?” We have had Cartes Vitales for 6 years but have never taken out a “mutuel” top-up policy.Do we have to take out such a policy?
