I m sorry if i have posted this thread in a wrong section...(i couldn't find the related section regarding my problem)

so, i m planning to visit Amsterdam this December (2010) for almost 7 days to visit my friends and i am a Green Card Holder.

I know i need Schengen Visa if i am not an US citizen. so how and where do i apply for Schengen Visa (i live in Los Angeles).

and i heard that i have to have a strong bank statement to get the visa....since i m just a student and working part time......what is the possibility of me getting approved for the visa..do i really have to have a great bank statement just to stay for 7 days? And i know i have to get the travel insurance too? Do you guys know any way of getting travel insurance for short period of time that can cover me while i m visiting Amsterdam?
I couldn't find any Netherlands' Embassy in Los Angeles...so where do i have to go to apply for the visa?

any advice will be appriciated...thanks in advance.
 
What is your country of citizenship? You might not need a visa. If you do, then you will need to prove you have enough money. I don't remember what I showed, but I did have a couple of grand. You can also see if your parents or can write you a notarised letter saying they provide for you along with copies of their bank statements. For travel insurance, I use HTH. Either way, ask them these questions when you call to make the appointment.

You can go to the honorary consulate in LA and apply for your visa: http://dc.the-netherlands.org/Confi...epresentations_in_the_U_S/Honorary_Consulates
