You'll then need to go to a second appointment at the immigration office where you'll receive your permanent visa called a “titre de séjour”. This will state the exact dates you can live in France for (a visa can be up to five years)
There are costs involved when applying for the visa. Visa fees can be found here. When you pick up your permanent titre de séjour, you will also need to pay a local tax.
Depending on your nationality and your age, you may be able to benefit from the working-holiday program. This program allows you to visit France for a period of more than three months, and up to one year, with the right to work during that time.
