Hi,
I have just recently gotten married to a Brit and we are planning to do an extensive tour of Europe within the next few months. I am presently on PSW and have not yet switched to FLR(M). Now I have booked an appointment at the French Consulate in Edinburgh but I was just wondering if my not having a spousal visa would be a problem. I have checked the french consulate website and I understand the visa should be issued free of charge to me and with less documentation. We have not made any flight bookings or hotel reservations as we were caught up in the volcanic ash nightmare a couple of weeks ago after pre booking our carribean honeymoon and it has been an ordeal getting our money back so we are not in a hurry to committ any funds untill we are good to go. Do you think not having any reservations made will be a problem with the French Embassy?
Finally since we plan to do many trips over the next few months, can I apply for a three months schengen visa or do I just apply for the expected duration of our first trip?
