Get your French visa right, the first time
Book a 30-minute call with Maxime, the relocation expert behind EasyFranceNow. We work out which visa fits your life, whether your case will hold up, and the exact order to file it. You leave with a written one-page plan.
You can find all of this online. That was never the hard part.
Every fact about French visas is published somewhere, including on our own blog. You can read it all and put it together yourself, and plenty of people do. The real trouble is the part you would never think to search for, because you do not know it is there. The question that never crossed your mind until it cost you. The document that had to come first. The detail in your own situation that quietly changes the answer.
That is what the call is for. It is also why we charge for the call, and not for the information.
What you get on the call
The questions you did not know to ask
The costliest mistakes in a visa process are the ones you never saw coming, including the small detail that gets a file refused. We know where Americans get caught, so we raise what you would have missed.
The right order, so you keep your timeline
Apostilles, sworn translations, proof of funds, the consulate appointment, OFII once you land. These steps depend on each other. Out of order, they can cost you weeks, sometimes a whole departure window. We set the order for your case.
Built around your situation
No generic checklist. Mixed income, remote work in a gray zone, savings instead of a salary, a spouse on a different status. These are the things a quiz or an article cannot read. We look at yours.
Maxime knows the system from the inside
Your call is with Maxime, who moves Americans to France for a living and knows how the French administration works in practice, not a call center reading a script. That is the difference you are paying for.
A written one-page plan
Sent within 48 hours, so you are working from a clear document instead of trying to remember a phone call. Your route, your sequence, your watch-outs, on one page.
Already took the visa quiz? Good. The quiz points you to the visa that likely fits. The call is where we check whether your case will actually hold up, and lay out the order to file it, around your real situation. One is a starting point. The other is your plan.

Book this if it is the right time
You have decided to move to France, or you are close, and you want a clear plan instead of forty open tabs. Whether or not you already know which visa you need is fine. We work that out together.
There is no real date yet. If the honest answer is someday, read the blog and take the quiz, then come back when you have a timeline. We would rather you keep your money for now.

A French relocation expert, in your corner for 30 minutes
Maxime moves Americans to France for a living, from the visa dossier to the apartment, the bank, and the carte vitale. On your call, all of that experience points straight at your situation.
What people say about working with Maxime
I just needed help with applying for a long-stay visa and Maxime gave me solid advice and a clear list of documents I needed to get. If you need some guidance with the French immigration process I'd recommend these guys everytime.
After over a month of searching for apartments with no response for viewings and/or agencies that didn't accept American incomes, I engaged the services of Maxime at Easy France Now. Within two weeks I was able to move into my current apartment (and I have a great landlord who's very responsive). Maxime was a great advocate and began setting up viewings the day I engaged services. He was available within minutes of me reaching out and was an awesome emotional support through the ordeal of apartment hunting.
The gentlemen of Easy France Now have helped me through thick and thin. Maxime found me an apartment in a beautiful neighborhood in less than a week after I engaged his services, he helped make sure that my utilities were on and functioning, and he provided extended concierge services to help me get my child enrolled in school and deal with French admin. I have used his services a second time as a translator and advocate since our initial contract and was VERY pleased. They advocate for their clients and fight the fight for them, so that clients can relax and live their French dream life. HIGHLY recommend Easy France Now!
