Visa Confusion

7 years ago
I am so confused. In order to obtain an Elective Residence Visa my husband and I have to have a permanent residential address in Italy.

Does this mean we have to fly to Italy, rent an AirBnB for a month, locate an apartment we would like to live in for a year and then fly back to the U.S., to apply for our ERV with this permanent address?

Is there a way around this? How do others achieve long-term visas without all this rig-a-ma-role?
