Bank Account

Thank God! Our corporate bank account has been approved! Took them a week plus to verify our records, etc but we have a Memphis West Pictures SARL bank account in France now! We are so happy coz without this we can’t get the company registered and started up. Praise the Lord! Woohoo!

In other news, we have settled into the apartment, cleaned it up and are now trying to hunt down a microwave to bring back into the apartment. Spent 2 weeks looking for a microwave oven, imagine. They are either way too expensive or sold out. But we’ve located Carrefour (at the edge of Paris centre) on the Internet and will probably try looking for one there.

Had 2 friends from church visit us last week, was fun bringing them around a bit. Also settled some major work visa stuff at the Prefecture. Will get our 1-year work visa in end June, going to settle the commercial card visa soon. We started the paper work from Feb 05 (!!), am glad this adventure is going to finish soon.

The lady helping us with the visa told us that another client of hers tried forever to get a visa in France, gave up and went to UK and got his visa within 3 weeks of application. Heh.
