Hello, sorry for long post!
I left Canada 14 years ago married to UK citizen and moved to France. Got carte the sejour. Bought house in France where my UK daughter was studying.
My husband and I moved to Germany to work but kept property in France while my daughter was doing her IB my carte the sejour in France expired in 2009 while I was in Germany (this was even my second carte de sejour)
- I got divorced in Germany 2007
- I have a visa to work in Germany with no expiry date
- I am Canadian with UK right of abode cuz married to UK citizen before 1983 this is valid for life
(could get UK passport but have to move to UK for 3 years and apply after that)
- The house in France belongs to me
- I came back to live in my house early 2011 (too busy with renovation to think paper work)
- I am now told on phone by prefecture that I am not allowed to have carte de sejour because no longer attached to UK citizen. (My daughter has British passport)
- I only have one home and it is here in France no other address
I recently have a job offer in Monaco. I fear I will lose this job if I don’t get my paper straight. As a Canadian I can apply for a French visa to work in IT. I have to ask for a visa outside France but I have no other address???
Can I get carte de sejour based on my daughter stating she lives with me in France which she will in Sept.
Is there any way I can get my expired 2009 carte de sejour renewed?
Thank you for your help
