Hi everyone,
I'm currently on a Visitor Visa V1 VLSTS and planning to apply for a change of status to Vie privée et familiale after PACS with my Italian partner who has French residency since a young age.

I have two questions for those who've done this recently:

1. Me and my boyfriend have been living together and have been since I came back with my visitor visa. I know in order to do the VPF visa you have to have utilities bills together. The thing is we live in a house owned by his family so we are not obligated to pay rent or utilities. Is this certain that we need this type of proof in order to do the vie privée et familiale visa? What else could we do to prove we live together and have common life?

We also don’t have any joint accounts together, what should we do?

Any recent experience and advice would be really appreciated!
