Hi,
I recently moved to Paris with my wife to work for a French employer. I received a long-stay visa under the frame of Carte Bleue Europeene which was approved by OFII. The actual visa we got from the consulate were for three months with a not stating that we should submit our request for a carte de sejour within two months after our arrival to France.
Once we were here we (and my employer) made the necessary steps with OFII who then transfered our file to the prefecture (within the two month period). We are waiting for developments from the prefecture but in the meantime realized that our visas will expire in a few days.
What does this mean? do we have to renew our visas? should we go to the prefecture? (note, we have not been to the prefecture until now since the process is managed by OFII for Carte Bleue Europeene).
Any help/advice will be highly appreciated!
