OFII: republican integration contract (CIR)

When you get your first residence card, for most cards (for example "salarié") the OFII invites you to an interview and you sign the CIR for 1 year: civic training and possibly French classes. Some cards (student, talent, travailleur temporaire) do not need it. Answer every OFII invitation.
