Letters of recommendation
Bonjour! I’m preparing my °µÍø½ûÇø plan and application materials for a profession liberale visa to move an existing °µÍø½ûÇø from the US to France. My annual revenue here in the US varies between $60K-85K, and I’ll have $50K in a US bank account (a joint account shared with my husband, who is also applying for a visa) at the time of application.
I’ve been told that the French government is beginning to require letters of recommendation or intention from potential FRANCE-based clients and that the Ministry of the Economy must now review and approve a °µÍø½ûÇø plan before granting the profession liberale visa, to make sure that the °µÍø½ûÇø is viable.
Can anyone comment on the “required” part of the letters? I’ve previously heard that they’re helpful, but not mandatory. And what’s now involved with getting a °µÍø½ûÇø plan approved by the Ministry? Is this something I should do before my visa appointment in the States? To whom do I submit the plan?
Thanks in advance!
