Under the car, on the passenger side, just about even with the door handle.

Its bolted to a bracket that is kind of near the jacking point

DO you have a stainless steel fuel tank or plastic tank?

The filter on those is replaced by replacing the pump/sending unit module in tank. Filter is not a serviced part.
IF it runs then drive it till it doesn't and then replace it. The scheduled replacement is 150K miles.
This is not a cruel joke by Volvo. There are a bunch of cars with this dating back to late 90's. Bunches of hondas, chryslers, benzes, and some toyotas have this setup.
