I am moving to Milan September 22nd. I am looking for a room and board situation. What's the best way to do that? And what kind of visa do I require? Thank you!

Where do you hold your citizenship? How long will you be in Italy? Are you a student, have work in Italy, etc.? If you are from the U.S. and plan to be in Italy for more than 90 days, you will need a visa. The visa process can take up to three months - it took the FBI 6 weeks to process my background check. You should go to the Italian Consulate/Embassy website nearest to where you live and read up on visas.

Pardon me, but you can go to any of the websites. I meant to suggest that you go to the website of the office nearest to you because that is the consulate/embassy you will need to work with and who will issue your visa.
