I just started the process using my towns consulate.

My whole family is from Poland... The nearest "polish" is my father.

My grandparents lived in a town that was taken by the USSR in WWII (now its part of Ucraine)

My father was born in a territory that was once poland and was repatriated using the 1957 repatriation act - http://untreaty.un.org/unts/1_60000/8/21/00015038.pdf

Then he lived there for 3 years - emigrating to latin america in 1960.

I have his paszport and birth certificate from poland

He was naturalized in 1971

I also have both my grand parents passports.

What wories me is:

Article 4: a person is not considered a Polish citizen, even if on August 31, 1939, he or she would have Polish citizenship, but now live in a foreign country and regularly:
1) Following the changes in the borders of Poland, became a citizen of another state
2) has national Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Lithuanian, Latvian or Estonian.
3) has German nationality, (unless the spouse of such a person has Polish citizenship and resides in Poland).

- in fact in USSR they were considered of jewish nationality

- He has a 1960 passport.

- After leaving USSR he never went back



What do you guys think about my case?

Anyone with a similar history?
