I think "different" is the wrong word. The point is the frontalier zones were abolished for EU-17/EFTA citizens. They can live anywhere in the EU/EFTA region and work anywhere in Switzerland. Border zones remain for non EU citizens and EU-8/EU-2 citizens.
I didn't know they abolished the frontalier zones, they spoke about Annecy/Aravis being the limit at the Salon des Frontaliers. We have just started looking in to the situation. I am not looking for a high end job so I can work in France on the border, if my French wife gets a Geneva job. With my G.I. bill we can make it work and I can wait out the 6 months or start looking when I get a student permit. Ether way I'm going myself to the permits office and speaking with a rep to find out what my options are. I find people are more helpful in person.

I am doing my degree by associates by an online university; It be better if I start this fall in Geneva and get the student permit.
