Well, sometimes it really helps to speak and write french when addressing the frech consulate (duh). My husband emailed the los angeles consulate to verify that we can register Cedric's birth and our marriage with the LA consulate. They said no, we must register our marriage with the Chicago consulate.
My husband has been doing a great job of dealing with the various agencies. He has contacted the Ohio secretary of state to obtain the marriage certificate with apostille. $5 plus a self-addressed stamped envelope. His dad is obtaining his birth certificate (they are coming at the end of this month). My mom is getting my birth certificate, but she wants to be sure that my husband has his certificate because the birth certificates must be less than 3 months old.
I've also filled out the paperwork for Cedric's passport. He needs a pic and all three of us need to go to the Post Office to apply. I also need to locate my passport and find out when it expires.
I started filling out the visa application and, as the spouse of a french citizen, it does not look like i will need to show insurance coverage...but i am not sure.
Husband's job prospects are looking better and better, which is why we really need to get moving on this paperwork since it takes a few months to get the visa.
