Hi!

As EC member your situation is priveleged against other foreignors, but it still is complicated.

The first question you have to solve is your Health Insurance.

If you have an E106 you will be insured for a maximum of 2 years.

After if you do not work regularly ( or have a firm and that is a dear solution with low turnover), then you will require a private Health Insurance, which will give you a cover equivalent to the French State Insurance - that costs above Euro 3500 per year, per person.

Finding work, even if you have a profession which is " looked " for, is not quite as simple as one can imagine, all the more so if you live in a départment which in the " France profonde ".

Yours,
