So with the permit you have does your wife already have full access to eu areas? Or will Jet be the next applying for a schgen visa?

Unfortunately she will need a Schengen visa.... ain't that rotten...???
And this time it will cost a few bob.
I am still debating wether to fly Ryanair and hire a car at the airport, or drive all the way.
This decision will determine which country's visa to apply for, Italy or France.

But in 3 years time she will be entitled to dual nationality.... so..... The world will be our oyster....

Itallian embassy is much less hassle in person, but you don't live in the big smoke.

From when i was researching the french gave the six months for most the Italians were far less likely to. But if you showed your an italian who needed to go their lots at a moment notice it maybe that your granted a 6 month visa straight off.

My wife had a french visa first for six months we visted france and italy during its valid period. We tried the italian schgen visa as we wanted to revist italy and not have to go to france first or for more time than italy. The wife went in person and when asked said the dates we really needed but said is it possible to have six months and they said yes why not.

If your main location is for italy get the italian, as i have posted before people have had difficulties when reapplying if they have visted a different country more or before visting the country they actually applied for unless a very good reason.

Im sure your walk it.

I went here with the kids a few years ago.
Beautiful site within driving distance from Pisa, Florence and Siena.

Right at the entrance to the Chianti road.

Rome is only 200 Kms away, and it makes a nice day out.

This where I booked again last summer, only that my ex never gave the kids passports out for us to go.
