Long stay Visa- ? on Specifics of Financial Information needed

7 years ago
Hi

My husband Carl and I are planning on moving to the Lake Garda area for a year. We are in the process of collecting everything we need for our appointment at the embassy in Chicago the first of March. We are actually going to lake Garda in Feb to find a long term rental so we have a rental agreement to show them at that appointment.

We are looking for any suggestions anyone can give us about that embassy appointment. Specifically, does anyone have a recommendation that worked for them on what exactly they like to see regarding proof of financial resources? We both have started drawing social security and each of us has a monthly pension distribution. I have tried numerous times to gain an answer on specifics from the embassy but to no avail.

Any help appreciated! We live in Colorado and need to travel to Chicago for the appointment so are definitely trying to get it right the first time :)

Also is anyone else in the forum living in the Lake Garda area? Would love to hear any specific info anyone may have.

Thanks!

Vickie
