Hey I need some input from the experts on this forum regarding my case.

I have been in contact with a few different Polish Lawyers and they have given me conflicting information. My grandmother was born to a Polish father in the United States. She was Polish until at least her 18th birthday, this is not in question. However she turned 18 in 1950, now one lawyer tells me that since she turned 18 before the 1951 act came into effect she then lost the Polish citizenship.

Another tells me this is no problem at all in fact says that it is good that she turned 18 before May 1950 since if she hadn't been 18 in May 1950 she would have lost it. I am about to send my documents and money to the lawyer that says I am eligible but I want to here from anyone that might have some knowledge before I start out on what may be a future enterprise.

 

Thing is this one lawyer claims that my grandmother lost the citizenship in 1950 thus couldn't have passed it on to my father when he was born in 1958.
