The point of this paperwork is not to prove you deserve to become French. The act of filling up these endless forms is ACTUALLY TURNING YOU INTO FRENCH. Bienvenue chez les fous.

Nope, the point is to get everybody out of fortress Europe. So she needs to convince the bureaucracy she has a real interest in here. I mean it's ludicrous, she actually has to explain why she is moving. It is so degrading. It's none of anybody's business why is she doing whatever she wants to do...OMG I'm done explaining it here. Where is our freedom??

When my husband applied to get the French nationality (I'm French myself) he had to wait 1 year after our wedding and when the file was ready, he had an interview at the police station and another one at the "prefecture de Nanterre". The lady there was so happy that he could speak perfect French that instead of 10 minutes they talked more than half an hour together. It happened in 2004 and rules have changed since then. Moreover during a year + 1day we didn't hear from the administration at all. And he received his birth certificate and became French!

Un de mes amis, iranien de naissance, vient d'obtenir la nationalité française. Lors de l'entretien final, à coté de questions sur les grandes valeurs de la République française comme la laïcité, on lui a demandé quel était son plat préféré - il leur a dit qu'il adorait la tartiflette, ça a achevé de les convaincre qu'il méritait d'être français. ;-) Quand on dit que les français sont obsédés par la bouffe ;-)

That is insane. You are so committed! I just received my Dutch citizenship through naturalisation, and while I paid more (850 euros, I think), because of the seriously impressive efficiency of the Dutch government, I think I only had to show proof of integration (passing an integration exam or language test - I did the language test) and show my (UK) passport, birth certificate and marriage certificate (although since I had already submitted the last two to the municipality, they were already registered so I didn't actually need to show them again). I made an appointment at city hall, showed the documents and paid (right there, by card) and then waited for the 'Royal Decree' decision (which comes after the Dutch government does their own security check) and then a ceremony in my city in which I had to swear to uphold the Dutch laws etc. The ceremony makes the decree official. The government keeps all the information current, so I didn't need to prove I've lived here for years because they can see that as soon as they type in my social security number. Same with getting a driver's licence and passport - the information (when you pass your driving test, and your citizenship) is all right there so you just make an appointment, go in with your photo and pay and collect your document a week later. And here I'm still thinking I want to move to France! I must be crazy! You are so hardcore. I'm sure your application will be successful. :)

so glad you did this video, looking forward to going through that process in like 5 years, haha, not. Almost finished with the process of getting married, and France has made it so stressful and complicated, haha, but they want to make sure that even though our marriage will be recognized in France, it has to be completely under French law instead of Korean or US law. I'm from the US, my partner is from France, and we're getting married in Korea, that's quite a bit of paperwork and money on birth certificates and apostilles and translations and shipping documents and translators, and notaires in France. This is all just for the French government, Korean and US governments don't make this process complicated. But this is the way we need to do it, neither of us have lived in US or France for like 4 years (he's never lived in the US, and I've never lived in France either), we're legal residents of Korea, so Korea it is.

In the middle ages, you would not be treated like this. At the dawn at the 19th century, the migration restrictions were considered to be so out-dated, because they quite visibly limit the economic yields of migration in favor for the locals. And that was never refuted! We just forget about the unforgettable technical and cultural advancements we made while having this freedom-based system. So now, why do we put restrictions on migration again...?? This is so lame, but putting restrictions is so 1850s....but I admire you. You made so much effort to get what you want.

Pourrait on avoir une vidéo de toi, Rosie, en train de chanter "la Marseillaise", le jour où tu auras reçu la nationalité Française ? Cela pourrait être fun avec ton charmant accent Néo-Zélandais ! :D

I did it 2 years ago... A lot of stuff you say here is wrong, and not nearly as hard as you make it seem... other than the fact it takes a long time...about 18 months to 2 years... You don't need to go to the ceremony.. you hear before if your dossier has been accepted. You either get you birth certificate in the post, or as I had to do send off for it to Nantes. I found it all pretty painless.. the French TCF test was easy, if you can speak French.

I am a British expat living in France who could easily apply for dual citizenship either par décret or par mariage. Not sure what is worse the French paperwork or the state of Brexit haha. Good luck anyway.
