Brexit in l'Ardèche - no contact with prefecture

Post new topic

kip kip 25

Hello all!

As a Scotsman in France, I am eagerly awaiting my titre de sejour but have yet to be contacted by the prefecture d'Ardèche in Privas. I've asked them to confirm if they have my dossier (which I sent in October 2020) but they will not confirm. Has anyone had any contact at all with them or is aware of the time frame they are working on? Starting to become a little concerned...

Many thanks and good luck to all in this difficult time.

Hello,
When you say 'they will not confirm', what do you mean exactly?

If you applied using the website of the Ministère de l'Intérieur, sending your scanned documents, you should have immediately received an email confirming receipt of your application.  This is automatically generated but shows proof you have applied and can be presented until you get the card itself. 
I got my Carte de Séjour back in January this year, having sent in the necessary documents.  Then I was contacted by email giving me an appointment to go to the Préfecture de Créteil where my fingerprints were taken and a few easy questions answered (my parents' names).  My Carte arrived through the post 3 weeks later.

I would recommend checking your initial application, look into your spam, etc.
Or alternatively, use the website and apply again ... you have till 30/06 so still have time.

Hello, You have to do it online , posting papers are not being processed, there is withdrawal agreement , online ends 30th June, final date to apply#also, driving licenses have to be transfered with prefecteur because online is blocked. This has to be done within a year of driving in France
good luck Louise
