Firstly, prior apologies for any questions with answers duplicated elsewhere - I'd be happy to follow any links posted!

I am recently married. My wife is Ukrainian, and now has FLR(M) status granted in UK valid for two years; I am a British citizen.
We intend to travel in the summer by road from UK through Schengen to Ukraine, through F, B, NE, D and PL. Also when we fly to Ukraine, it is often the best option to overnight in Warsaw.
I understand that not all states have implemented visa-free entry for spouses of EU citizens (Directive 2004/38/EC), notably France as evident from their website.
Therefore, I am completing the Schengen Application Form from the French Embassy website, and the associated questionnaire for family members.
I have some specific questions on the Application Form, the answers to which are not immediately evident elsewhere. I understand that there are some questions not requiring a response (*), but I would be grateful for assistance on others!!
21. Main Destination. I have entered "UKRAINE via Schengen Transit States (F, B, NE, D, PL) also Tourism" - is this OK?
22 - 25. Visa Type. If possible, I want the Schengen visa to run for the duration of the UK residency, i.e. until March 2011. Is this possible? What therefore should be the responses?
22. Short stay
23. Individual
24. Multipl
25. Valid to 03.2011
- alternatively, what is possible that best suits our requirements?
27. Final Destination. I have answered "Yes, By Citizenship" - is this OK?
I'd be very grateful either for some direct assistance on completing these items on the form, or for a pointer to where I might find the information.
Many, many thanks in advance.
Regards, Lamp
