[quote author=KOLAPO3 post=77578825][/quote] 1. There is no best time to apply. Its Summer Application Season (Peak Period), so apply 90 days to your travel date. 2. For the Insurance, kindly ensure that you get it from the companies recognized by the Embassy. 3. Justify the purpose of the Visit by booking for a tour like L'Open Tour or free ones like Sandeman's Walking Tour. 4. Don't forget to book your hotel preferably in City Centre or around Gare du Nord or Sacre Coeur Area. If you decide to pay, consider hotels that allow free cancellations. Goodluck 1 Like 2 Shares |

^^ re the gare du nord recommendation, I don’t think it really matters. Just stay in any of the 20 arrondisements then you’ll be good. I personally find republique is more central than gare du nord. Gare du nord is just great for the rer B from CDG directly, and I personally don’t like that area at all. Just don’t do any hotel reservation in the suburbs not because you won’t get the visa but because it’s cheaper to stick to getting around with just the metro so you don’t have to do the full navigo payment for zones 1-5 |

I applied and submitted my application on the 9th of this month but I am yet to hear from them. I also have a friend that submitted his application. his. and on this passport was misspelt. Michael was spelt as Miichael. the double I. I want to confirm if this does not matter. |

richcasey: So I got to the manor house at 4:30am and I was number 1, oh I went early because I read somewhere on the canada visa thread about someone who said he got there at 5am sometime last year and was number 200+ I experienced it differently as I was the only one there for an hour and Number 2 didn't come until 5:30am and number 4 at 6am, after 6am, people flooded in. I hope this helps someone. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Approval Alert! I read through the 72 pages here before i applied, I'd travelled to the UK twice in the past and a daily reader of the canada visa thread, so I'm familiar with the visa processes but not for schengen so I had to read through because with these Visa Officers you just can never know. I plan visiting my fiancee in the Netherlands and then proceed to France to attend a film festival in which my film has been selected to show. *You do not have to go with the originals of anything because you're not gonna get your documents back, make colored photocopies of everything. You will only get your passport back after you application has been processed.* Documents submitted -Completed signed schengen visa form -registration receipt -you get this after completing your form online. -Passport photograph - do make sure this is the required size as I was delayed at the submission center and asked to take a new photo just because my face appeared smaller in the photo I took there. -Invitation letter (My purpose of travel was to attend a film festival in Paris where my Film had been selected to screen but I decided to stop first in The Netherlands to visit my Fiancee and we drive to Paris from The Netherlands). So I submitted invitation from Paris and from my fiancee. -My fiancee's passport data page -Pictures of us together. -Pictures of our whatsapp call log (I didn't add our chats because it's private) -Health insurance from Mansard. ( I covered for 21 days even though i planned to use 14days. -My fiancee's tenancy agreement for I stay with her in The Netherlands and an unpaid but confirmed booking of my hotel in Paris. -My father sponsors my trip so I submitted his Statement of account Company registration papers Passport data page with Visas to USA, UK etc His share certificates to other companies Sponsorship letter from him on his company letter head -My employment letter -Leave letter -Cover letter from work -Proof I'm a shareholder in my father's company -A letter from me to detail my itinerary and also to inform the visa officer of my hometies as a first son in my family and my responsibilities to my father's companies. -An unpaid flight ticket from turkish airlines website which had only 48hrs before expiry, I did this because it's clearly stated everywhere online not to book a real flight as if your visa is rejected, you lose your money. Oh! One more thing, I requested for 14 days single entry visa but i was given a 30days multiple entry visa to which i an grateful as i can go back to The Netherlands after Paris and fly back with my fiancee. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Good day house, nice job going on here. I gained admit into an Erasmus Mundus masters program in one of the Grand Ecoles- ENS Paris Saclay. I have gone through the discussions here, and have found out that one do not need to book for an appointment at VFS. However, I will like to know from the gurus in the house on the cost of living in Paris, as well as the things to expect there. I will be spending one year in ENS, but the other year in research at Ecole polytechnique, Harvard medical school and MIT. Thank you all, as I await your valued responses. 1 Like |

TheNoble007:Congrats on your admission! Nice one. The cost of living in Paris depends on the district per sè, as some district are more expensive than others but generally, as a student, it is better you apply for accommodation at Cité Universitaire or since you are on a scholarship, you can apply for a CROUS accommodation through Campus France. Accommodation with Cité is about €500 - €680 per month depending on the type of room (Single room/Studio) while CROUS is between €400 - €600 also depends if it is shared or a studio. Paris is a beautiful, calm and artistic city; if you don't look for trouble, trouble won't look for you. You meet all kinds and "not smiling" is a thing. So when someone tells you "Bonjour" with no smile, it is normal. The metro is always crowded in the morning and night with slight delays at time. Nevertheless, your 1 year in Paris would be worth it! 3 Likes |
