Travelling in Schengen area for a year with visa

Upvote:2

A French, national long term visa only allows you to visit other Schengen countries for 90 days within a 180 days period. As US citizens, this does not give you any obvious advantage over the allowed visa free stay.

As you already seem to assume: the French visa will only allow you to stay longer than 90 days in France and the period you are staying in France does not count towards the 90 days you are allowed in other countries. So if you intend to stay in Europe exactly one year with a French national visa, you will have to spend at least 180 days in France and can at most visit other Schengen countries for 185 days.
