Best to apply within three months of arrival, so you won't be worried about the one year time limit.

You'll also have to get certified and translated copies of your driving license and driving record from your state. Very important to get something that has the original date when your license was issued. Translations will be needed to be done here in France.

Oh, and baking powder - Alsa Brand in the little pink packets in the baking aisle. Individual envelopes so it doesn't go stale.
