Dual citizen French/US: what is needed to move?

4 years ago

Hi all,

I'm a dual citizen who was born in the US with French citizenship. I've been to France often with family and lived there briefly as a student. I'm considering a true move, and I'm trying to figure out what my priorities should be in terms of logistics. I don't need a visa, so I'm more focused on what comes after the move (ID, bank, etc.). Language-wise I'm fluent in conversation (no American accent), but don't have as much professional vocabulary since I never learned/needed it in the US.

So, some questions:

- Find a job beforehand or get there and then start looking? Again, I'm a little nervous about my language level.
- How have others dealt with the bank account / apartment catch-22?
- Any thoughts on meeting people when abroad? Despite my fluency, in previous experience I've found native French folks to be fairly insular.

Thanks in advance!
